DALLAS (July 9, 2009)--The father of a 9-month-old Texas girl who has been missing for about a month has been charged with capital murder in the infant’s disappearance.

Dallas police Senior Cpl. Janice Crowther said Thursday that Denton County prosecutors filed the
Alandus Weaver, 20.

Daisja Weaver has been missing since early last month after her mother, Tamaira Creagh, 19, said a man broke into her apartment and kidnapped the baby.

An Amber Alert was issued for the missing girl, but police became suspicious as they further investigated the disappearance.

Officers eventually arrested Creagh on an evidence tampering charge, and she told police they dumped the child's body into Lake Lewisville with a sandbag tied to it after the baby died while in her father's care.

Alandus Weaver was arrested on suspicion of tampering or fabricating evidence to hinder an investigation.

A search of the lake for the child's body has been abandoned.

Yup, I'd say Rayburn Lake in the Dallas area was big and deep enough. And hold any type of sedating drugs....these cretins need to suffer. Would certainly prevent them from further spoiling the gene pool!
