Atlanta news, Georgia news.

A 22-year-old Georgia man is facing murder charges and is being jailed without bail for killing a 5-year-old girl in an Atlanta home while in his care on March 29, reports said.

Deputies found Savannah Adams dead in her bed after she was left with her family member’s boyfriend, Ethan Gathright, who has served jail time in 2014 for robberies and targets. The girl’s body and face were covered with bruises in a “horrible” scene that left Atlanta police Captain D’Andrea Price, who investigated the incident, with trouble sleeping. The suspect fled the scene before being apprehended Monday.

Adam’s manner of death was not yet specified but investigators found a handgun in Gathright’s home.
