Francis Cabello, a 32-year-old mother from Queens, allegedly murdered her 5-year-old daughter, Fabiana Cabello, in their South Richmond Hill home. The incident occurred around 7:00 PM on Wednesday, October 14, when police responded to a 911 call made by the mother herself who confessed to killing her child. Upon arrival, officers found Fabiana unconscious and unresponsive with injuries to her mouth and nose; she was pronounced dead shortly after at Jamaica Hospital Medical Center.
The Office of the Chief Medical Examiner later determined that Fabiana suffered severe heart, brain, eye, and lung injuries. Cabello was arraigned in Queens Criminal Court on second-degree murder charges and held without bail. Her father, Kuldeep Singh, is struggling to afford funeral costs, having created a GoFundMe page to cover expenses.
