SALT LAKE CITY — A body found after a five-day search is that of a 5-year-old girl taken from her home and killed by her uncle, Utah police confirmed on Thursday. Also Thursday, a 911 call released by Logan Police revealed the panic her parents felt moments after realizing she was missing. Detrich Black, the boyfriend of Shelley’s mother Jessica Whipple, was calm but distraught as he reported the 5-year-old’s disappearance. The body was found after the girl’s 21-year-old uncle Alex Whipple gave his lawyer a map of where she was hidden. Whipple killed her Saturday after spending the night at his sister’s house and hid the body under trees and brush, prosecutors have said.
