RICHMOND, Va. (WTVR) -- Months after a toddler died following a sexual assault, the official cause of death for 17-month-old Nariah Brown, has been determined to be homicide from blunt force trauma to the torso.
Her mom, Aija Brown, said she left her daughter in a South Richmond motel room with a person she trusted.
Crime Insider sources confirmed that right after Nariah's death, a person of interest was taken into custody by the US Marshal's Fugitive Task Force and charged with a probation violation where he was denied bond.
