The father of 10-year-old Charlenni Ferreira committed suicide in his jail cell early yesterday, just three days after he and his wife were charged with murdering the little girl, whom police said suffered years of torture and abuse in the family’s Feltonville home.
Domingo “Anibal” Ferreira, 53, was found dead in his cell at the Curran-Fromhold Correctional Facility about 3:10 a.m. by a correctional officer on routine patrol, Philadelphia Prison System spokesman Bob Eskind said.
“He hung himself with a piece of torn sheeting from the top bunk and was found on the bottom bunk,” Eskind said.
