A grand jury has indicted Derion Vence with tampering with a corpse in Maleah Davis‘ death, the Harris County District Attorney’s office announced on Thursday.
“Our work continues to seek justice for Maleah,” Harris County District Attorney Kim Ogg said.

No additional charges have been filed but the Harris County District Attorney say they are awaiting a final autopsy report from the Medical Examiner’s Office in order to make a decision to pursue further charges against Vence.
Davis was laid to rest on June 22nd following a large funeral in which 500 people attended.
