The Georgia Bureau of Investigation on Friday said the body pulled from Lake Allatoona June 29th was indeed that of 7-year-old Kamaire Wash of East Point. The GBI conducted an autopsy and used DNA to identify the remains. A cause of death has not yet been released.
It was suspected to have been Wash when on June 30th, her father reported her missing. After he claimed he searched for Kamaire for about an hour, Michael Wash reported his oldest child missing. Later that day, the case shifted from a search for a missing child to a homicide investigation.
So far, Wash and his live-in girlfriend, Lasherae Davis, have been with two counts of cruelty to children in the first degree, cruelty to children in the third degree, making false statements, and concealing the death of another. Additionally, Wash was charged with aggravated assault and Davis was charged with being a party to the crime of aggravated assault. Both were being held without bond Friday in the Fulton County jail.
