New York Post: Girl, 3, tortured to death in ‘exorcism’ told mom ‘I love you’ — before body left on altar: docs
A 3-year-old girl was tortured to death during an “exorcism’’ that her family performed on her in a California church — where she futilely told her mother, “I love you’’ and her corpse was later left lying on the altar., authorities say.
Little Arely Naomi Proctor was found dead inside the Iglesia Apostoles y Profetas in downtown San Jose on Sept. 24, 2021, KRON 4 reported, citing new court filings.
The tot’s body was riddled with wounds she sustained when her mother, uncle and grandfather “forcibly grabbed her by the neck” to remove what they said was a demon, according to documents from Santa Clara County Deputy District Attorney Rebekah Wise.
“While this assault was ongoing, Arely struggled to escape from her abusers. The victim repeatedly said ‘No!’ ” Wise wrote in the troubling, 50-page memorandum.
