Wayne County Prosecutor Kym L. Worthy has charged Semeria Greene, 26, of Detroit, with felony murder, which carries a life sentence without parole, and first-degree child abuse, a 15-year penalty, for allegedly stabbing her 8-year-old daughter, Tameria Greene.

Police responded at 2:42 a.m. Sunday to an apartment in the 2270 block of Larned where Tameria Greene was found on the floor unresponsive, suffering from a stab wound to her chest...

Mom charged in Detroit girl's death

State agency made visits to home over abuse concerns

By George Hunter
The Detroit News

Detroit — State officials are investigating the case of a young girl who was allowed to live with a mother who was repeatedly accused of abuse and neglect before being charged with her murder.

Semeria Greene, 26, on Wednesday was charged with murdering her daughter, Tameria, who would have turned 9 that day. She died Sunday after being stabbed in the chest at their Detroit apartment, a home caseworkers visited throughout the year, including just days before her death.

Their efforts to remove Tameria and her four siblings had been denied repeatedly since 2010, despite allegations that Semeria Greene allowed them to live in squalor, worked as a prostitute and gave birth to a son three years ago who tested positive for marijuana, records show.

Greene was due in court Jan. 29 after a Child Protective Services worker in October saw bruises on Tameria's face and body. Instead, the mother is due to be arraigned at 1 p.m. today in 36th District Court on felony murder and first-degree child abuse charges that could imprison her for life...

If allegations of abuse by their mother were so blatant and piling up, then why wasn't 8-year-old Tameria Greene and her siblings taken out of the home?

The most recent petition to have the children taken from Semeria Greene's care was filed the day after this past Thanksgiving. Sources tell Local 4 the 8-year-old girl had bruises on her hand and face and she said her mother had abused her...

The more I hear/read about this case, the :furious: I feel about nothing being done to prevent this child's death. Tameria never had a chance. :rose:
 
So basically she only killed this child because this child was the one reporting the abuse?

The suspect's other offspring are four boys. Perhaps the fact that Tameria was a girl plays into the scenario. :moo:

Meanwhile, the mother was back in court today for a custody hearing on her remaining children.

By George Hunter

Detroit — The brother of an 8-year-old girl stabbed to death last week told authorities his mother "cut his sister," killing her, according to court documents filed Monday.

Slain girl's mother endured a painful childhood, court documents show

By George Hunter and Christine MacDonald
The Detroit News

Detroit — When she was barely a teenager, Semeria Greene cried out for help and predicted she'd "end up dead or just somebody dangerous on the streets," court records show.

Twelve years later, Greene is in jail on allegations she stabbed to death her 8-year-old daughter, Tameria, who was mourned Wednesday during a funeral. Dozens, some carrying flowers, filed into the Muslim Center on Davison for the private, closed-casket service.

Tameria had a tumultuous life — and documents obtained Wednesday by The Detroit News shed light on the troubled childhood of her 26-year-old mother, including accusations that she was a frequent runaway who attempted suicide and was abused herself...
