Pediatrician Faces Accusations Of Murdering Young Daughter
An Oklahoma pediatrician faces accusations of murdering her 4-year-old daughter while on vacation in Florida and staging the death as a drowning.
“According to investigators, uniform officers from the Village of El Portal Police Department responded to reports of a drowning child in a residential pool. Miami-Dade Fire Rescue responded and transported the child to an area hospital, where medical staff pronounced her deceased,” the Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office stated.
Dr. Neha Gupta, 36, was arrested in Oklahoma City and is expected to be extradited to Florida.
“Through investigative means and consultation with the Miami-Dade State Attorney’s Office, detectives obtained an arrest warrant for Dr. Neha Gupta and traveled to Oklahoma City. With the assistance of the Oklahoma City Police Department’s Homicide Unit and the United States Marshals Service, they were able to locate and take her into custody,” the Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office said.
“She will be charged with Murder in the 1st Degree,” it added.

ABC News provided further details:
The 4-year-old received CPR and was taken to a local hospital but “despite all life-saving measures,” she was pronounced deceased at 4:28 a.m., officials said.
Gupta, who shares custody of her daughter with her ex-husband, told authorities that the two traveled from Edmond, Oklahoma, to Miami and rented a short term rental home through AirBnB — which is where the 4-year-old was found dead. Gupta’s ex-husband, Dr. Saurabh Talathi, said he was unaware the child had left the state of Oklahoma and that the two parents were in an “ongoing custody battle,” the affidavit said.
Prior to the incident, the mother and daughter arrived at the rental property on June 26 between the hours of 7 p.m. and 8 p.m. and the child was “tired after a full day of riding jet skis along with spending the day at the beach and was asleep,” she told authorities.
Gupta told officials she carried her daughter into the residence and woke her for dinner at approximately 9 p.m. The child fell asleep at around 12:30 a.m. and the two “co-slept on a bed located within the master bedroom,” the affidavit said.
Then, at approximately 3:20 a.m., Gupta claimed she was awakened by an “unidentified noise,” realized her daughter was not in the bed and that the glass sliding door leading to the patio was open, the affidavit said.

OMFG an Oklahoma pediatrician traveled to Miami to kill her own young daughter at an ABNB. As if Miami CSI would not know the difference between a drowning and strangulation. Absolutely disgusting.

NBC News noted:
During an autopsy Sunday, a pathologist with the Miami-Dade County Medical Examiner Department found that the girl’s lungs and stomach were “dry” and that cuts in her mouth and bruising in her cheeks were “not consistent” with the first responders’ lifesaving efforts, according to the affidavit.
The pathologist concluded that the girl was dead before she was put in the pool, the affidavit says.
While the cause and manner of death are pending, the pathologist’s preliminary findings indicate that the girl’s injuries are consistent with asphyxiation by smothering, the affidavit says.
The autopsy also showed that the girl’s stomach was empty, contrary to what Gupta told authorities about having fed her at 9 p.m., the affidavit says.
Gupta “attempted to conceal the killing of the ‘deceased victim’ by staging an accidental drowning within the swimming pool of a rental property,” it says.
The affidavit does not identify a possible motive.
