Crazy Reason Mom Suffocates Her 4-Year-Old Daughter & Dumps Body

A Florida woman whose 4-year-old daughter’s body was found in a dumpster is charged with first-degree murder.

A Miami-Dade Police statement says a man throwing out garbage Sunday found the body of Tania Paige inside the trash bin at his apartment complex southwest of Miami.

The girl’s mother, 31-year-old Tina Farrington, was held without bond Monday at the Miami-Dade County jail on a first-degree murder charge.

An arrest report says Farrington was home with her two children — Tania and a younger son — about 7 p.m. on Oct. 31 when she became upset with her daughter’s sassy behavior.

Farrington “lured” the children to her bedroom, where she killed her daughter, the report said.

A police spokeswoman said she did not know Farrington’s son’s age or whether he witnessed his sister’s killing.

“For several days” Farrington stashed her daughter’s body in the trunk of her 2013 Nissan Altima sedan. When the smell became too intense, Farrington moved the child’s body to a dumpster about 1 a.m. Sunday.

Police said Farrington hid Tania’s body in the trunk of her car until she noticed a foul odor and then moved the child’s body to the dumpster in her apartment complex.

According to police, Farrington confessed to killing Taina. Jail records did not show whether Farrington had an attorney.
