POLICE FIND REMAINS OF MISSING 8-MONTH-OLD AT FAMILY RESIDENCE

Kentucky State Police have located the remains of an 8-month-old girl who was missing and charged four people in connection to the deceased body.

According to KSP, detectives located an infant’s body consistent with Miya Rudd at 1:15 p.m. Friday. The decomposed body was located inside the family’s residence hidden in a concealed manner.

This comes as her family prepares to go to court on multiple charges including abandonment.

After investigators process the scene the baby will be taken by the Ohio County Coroner’s Office and transported to the Kentucky Medical Examiners Office in Louisville.

Tesla Tucker, 29 of Reynolds Station; Cage C. Rudd, 30 of Reynolds Station; Ricky J. Smith, 56 of Reynolds Station and Brodie C. Payne, 28 of Reynolds Station were all charged with abuse of a corpse, tampering with physical evidence and failure of person to report the death of a person.

Additional charges are likely as the investigation is ongoing by Kentucky State Police, Ohio County Coroner’s Officer and Kentucky Medical Examiners Office.
