Texas police officials are investigating the death of three sisters after their bodies were found in a private pond the Texarkana Gazette reported.
A family friend was babysitting Temari Oliver, 5, Amiyah Hughes, 8, and Zi’Ariel Oliver, 9, when the three sisters went missing last Friday. Cass County Sheriff Larry Rowes said the three girls were last seen at a home on State Highway 77 on the outskirts of Atlanta before they left the residence. The girl’s mom, Bre Oliver (Shommaonique Oliver), posted the story on her Facebook page.
“My heart it hurt so bad because my babies are gone to be with the lord & I know everyone have a role on earth but their role’s was to short. They had a long life ahead of them, and now they will never get to grow up into the young ladies I know they was going to be,” she wrote. “just know mama love you no matter what, say hi to grannies for me. its not goodbye its see you later my sweet angles.”
A dive team later located their bodies in the pond Saturday. Police found a pair of shoes and clothing near the watery orifice.
“We located items of clothing around a pond and in a pond,” Texas Game Warden Shawn Hervey told KSLA. “So, we centered the search around that small body of water, and with the use of divers we were able to recover three victims at approximately 2 a.m.”
“We have no idea what the girls were doing there,” Cass County Sheriff Larry Rowe explained to the Texarkana Gazette. Investigators have yet to determine the cause of their deaths. The young girls bodies have been sent to the medical examiner for autopsies.
A GoFundMe campaign was started to help pay for their funeral costs.
