Charges Dropped Against Richardson Mother Accused in the Death of 3-year-old Daughter

RICHARDSON (WBAP/KLIF)- The Dallas County District Attorney’s office is dropping charges against Sini Mathews, the adoptive mother of Sherin Mathews who was found dead in a Richardson Culvert in 2017.

Mathews had been charged after prosecutors said she and her husband left their daughter, home alone and  two weeks later her body was found in a drain pipe near their home in Richardson.

 

The DA’s Office said there was not enough evidence to proceed with allegations and try Mathews for a murder case.

The Richardson Police Department released a statement saying “While we are disappointed with this turn of events, we will continue to work with the DA’S office to ensure justice is done.”
