Dancer Sought in Child Abuse Case
NEWARK, N.J., Jan. 8 — The FBI has joined the search for a go-go dancer wanted in the death of a 7-year-old boy and the starvation of his two brothers.
SHERRY L. MURPHY, a cousin of the boys’ mother, may have fled to the South, investigators said. They said she has family in Rocky Mount, N.C.
Murphy is wanted on child endangerment charges.
The body of Faheem Williams was found Sunday in a plastic storage bin at Murphy’s home, a day after his twin and his 4-year-old brother were discovered starving and burned in a locked basement room. An autopsy determined Faheem died from starvation and blunt force to the stomach.
Murphy began caring for the boys when their mother was jailed on assault charges in March.
The FBI said it was preparing a warrant to charge Murphy, 41, with unlawful flight to avoid prosecution. Newark officials posted a $5,000 reward for information leading to her arrest and urged anyone with information to call a special police tip line, 973-733-5402.
Faheem’s twin, Raheem, and 4-year-old Tyrone remained hospitalized in fair condition Tuesday. They were placed Tuesday in the custody of the Division of Youth and Family Services, which was trying to find them a foster home, agency officials said.
