Two charged after 3-year-old Mississippi girl dies

PICAYUNE, Miss. (WHLT) – Picayune police arrested a man and a woman in connection to the death of a three-year-old girl.

Police said they responded to Crestwood Drive around 10:15 a.m. on March 18 after receiving a call about a deceased child, who was identified as Aurora Enfinger.

Investigators suspected foul play, and the child’s death was later ruled as a homicide. Detectives obtained a search warrant in the case to gather evidence, and they also recovered steroids.

According to police, Christian and Samantha Enfinger were arrested for possession of a controlled substance with the intent to distribute.

On March 20, Samantha Enfinger was charged with capital murder.

“This is a tragic situation and our thoughts and prayers are with the people that thought well of Aurora. We ask that you pray for those impacted by this horrible crime and never forget this beautiful child,” police said.

Anyone with additional information about the case can contact Captain Rhonda Johnson at 601-798-7411.
