Alabama man with bondage fetish strangles 11-year-old girl to death, joins search party to mislead police
Details are beginning to emerge in the case of an 11-year-old Alabama girl who was found strangled to death on March 1, even as a judge deemed that prosecutors had sufficient evidence for the capital murder case against the defendant to proceed.
Defendant Christopher Wayne Madison, 33, was arrested and charged with capital murder in connection to the death of Amberly Barnett, with court documents saying that he misled officers during the initial search when the young girl was reported missing.
According to the Daily Mail, Amberly, who had been staying with her aunt in Collinsville, disappeared at around 6 pm on March 1, while her aunt and her boyfriend were out shopping, prompting law enforcement to launch a search for the 11-year-old.
Her body was found the next day, 200 yards into the woods behind her aunt's house.
