Zayla Rank: age 3 found dead outside home

Zayla Rank a 3 year old was found outside a home in Highgrove community in Riverside County Ca.  Zayla’s body was found outside a home at 6:45 am on Friday.  Zayla had signs of trauma to her body.

Susan Rank is charged in her death.  The family claims that Susan has mental issues and tried to seek help only to be turned away.

Zayla’s great-aunt Tracylyn Sharrit, I am assuming a mental health expert,  claims that “mental illness killed Zayla”.  Problem I have is that if aunty knew, then why didn’t she take Zayla into her home?  Here’s my point:  Sharrit stated:  “Zayla couldn’t protect herself. Susan couldn’t protect her either. She was mentally gone.”

According to the aunt, Susan was born with a brain tumor.  Susan’s mother said she used everything in her power to get Susan to get out and seek help.  It was also said that Lori Wood, Susan’s mother was in the process of seeking housing so she could get custody of Zayla.

Susan Rank has been arrested and is currently in the Robert Presley Detention Center. Her next court hearing is 31 January 2018 at the Riverside Hall of Justice. Looks like she is charged with Murder and also booked for violation of probation.
