The blunt force trauma death of a Birmingham girl who died two days ago has been ruled a homicide.
Birmingham police on Saturday said foul play was involved in the death of Kar’Mynn Brachelle Gaines. The 18-month died hours after she was taken off life support Thursday afternoon at Children’s of Alabama.
