Ashlee Buzzard has been charged with murder in the shooting death of her 9-year-old daughter, Melodee Buzzard, with allegations of intentional discharge of a firearm and premeditation. She pleaded not guilty, and while the death penalty will not be sought, prosecutors aim for life in prison without parole if convicted. Melodee was reported missing in October, and her remains were found in December, with evidence linking Ashlee to the crime. A motive has yet to be determined.
