A 7-year-old cheerleader was murdered and left in a creek after
disappearing from her mother for 25 minutes. Kentucky State police
confirmed that Gabriella Doolin's death was a
homicide after an autopsy on Monday. Detectives are still investigating
how the 7-year-old was slain in just 25 minutes after her mother
reported her missing.
"I cannot say a lot, but believe me we are trying to do everything
within our boundaries, that is allowed, to bring this person to
justice," Allen County Sheriff Jeff Cooke wrote on his Facebook page.
Doolin was last seen at a football game at the Allen County High School
with her mother on Saturday, police said. She reported her daughter was
missing at about 7:40 p.m. and a search began immediately, cops said.
Her body was found abandoned in a wooded area's creek behind the high school.
"We 've never been this empty. I'd give anything to hold my baby girl
just one more time," her father, Brian Doolin, wrote on Facebook on
Sunday. "I would gladly trade places with my baby girl..i don't know why
anyone would do this to a baby or anyone for that matter!"
