Charisma Mariah Marquez oli arizonalainen tyttö, jonka kohtalo nousi laajaan julkiseen keskusteluun Yhdysvalloissa vakavien lastensuojeluun liittyvien epäkohtien vuoksi. Hän oli sijoitettuna adoptio­perheeseen, ja hänen elämäänsä varjostivat vaikeat olosuhteet ennen traagista kuolemaansa vuonna 2017. Tapaus herätti kysymyksiä viranomaisten toiminnasta, valvonnasta ja siitä, miten haavoittuvassa asemassa olevia lapsia suojellaan järjestelmän sisällä.Lähteet:https://www.abc15.com/news/region-phoenix-metro/central-phoenix/records-human-remains-found-in-phoenix-house-fire-belong-to-girl-who-died-in-2017 https://www.abc15.com/news/region-phoenix-metro/west-phoenix/human-remains-found-in-phoenix-home-amid-child-abuse-investigation-police-say https://www.mtvuutiset.fi/artikkeli/karmea-rikosvyyhti-usa-ssa-alkoi-paljastua-nalkaisen-11-vuotiaan-soitettua-lastensuojeluun-viranomaiset-jarkyttyivat-ihmisluut-torrottivat-katosta/7714752 https://dcs.az.gov/sites/default/files/CF-NF-PreliminaryReport%20/Fatality%20Preliminary%20Report%20-%20Anna%20Loera.pdf https://dcs.az.gov/sites/default/files/CF-NF-SummaryReport%20/Fatality%20Summary%20Report%20-%20Anna%20Loera.pdf https://www.abc15.com/news/region-phoenix-metro/west-phoenix/parents-now-charged-with-murder-after-childs-remains-were-found-in-2017-house-fire https://eu.azcentral.com/story/news/local/phoenix/2021/04/27/autopsy-girl-whose-bones-were-found-died-abuse-neglect/7391606002/ https://eu.azcentral.com/story/news/local/arizona-child-welfare/2021/03/19/charisma-marquez-found-dead-did-foster-parents-get-state-subsidy/6911654002/ https://eu.azcentral.com/story/news/local/phoenix-breaking/2021/04/02/adoptive-parents-accused-of-concealing-body-charged-with-murder/7069503002/ https://eu.azcentral.com/story/news/local/phoenix/2021/03/19/murder-charges-sought-rafael-maribel-loera-in-charisma-marquez-death/4299770001/ https://www.scribd.com/document/504409835/Medical-Examiner-Report-in-Loera-murder-case https://eu.azcentral.com/story/news/local/phoenix-breaking/2022/01/27/mcao-seek-death-penalty-adoptive-parents-charged-murder/9247646002/ https://vancouver.citynews.ca/2021/04/02/couple-accused-of-concealing-girls-body-charged-with-murder/ https://dcs.az.gov/sites/default/files/StatementFatality/Fatality%20Statement%20-%20Anna%20Loera.pdf https://www.oxygen.com/crime-news/rafael-and-maribel-loera-facing-murder-charges-in-ana-loeras-death https://www.superiorcourt.maricopa.gov/docket/CriminalCourtCases/caseInfo.asp?caseNumber=CR2021-001259 https://edition.cnn.com/2020/01/30/us/arizona-child-abuse-skeletal-remains https://eu.azcentral.com/story/news/local/phoenix/2020/02/06/woman-says-mother-girl-whose-bones-found-phoenix-home/4661196002/ https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7970379/Woman-claims-biological-mother-girl-11-body-foster-familys-attic.html
