Foster mother charged in Malayshia Alford murder was deemed unfit, attorney says

New details have emerged following murder charges filed against 36-year-old Philadelphia public school teacher Caprice Williams in the death of her 10-year-old foster daughter, Malayshia Alford, whose body was discovered inside a car trunk in Lindenwold, New Jersey. Attorney Nadeem Bezar of Kline & Specter, representing Alford’s estate, revealed that Williams was previously deemed unfit for foster care following a 2021 child abuse case involving a severely malnourished 4-year-old, which led to a legal settlement with a placement agency.
