Authorities investigating the theft of a 2-year-old girl's body from a Connecticut cemetery said Wednesday that evidence at the crime scene points to a possible ritual.
...
Donna Loglisci, Stamford's town clerk who signed disinterment papers permitting authorities to exhume the coffin, identified the girl as Imani Joyner. The girl was called a miracle baby by doctors in a 2006 article in The Advocate of Stamford because she survived more than two years even though she was born with semi-lobar holoprosencephaly, a condition that kept her brain from developing fully.
"We thought the interest in this particular baby might be the background, since it was labeled a miracle baby," Conklin said. "So that's why we believe this baby in particular might have been targeted and it might not be a random act. They would seek that mystic power, perceived power of it being a miracle baby."

"Imani" means "faith."

Another child-corpse event with ritual overtones is found here.
A 700 year old skull – the skull of a child – suddenly turns up on an Australian beach. Apparently, it is a European child, therefore could not have been in Aust 700 years ago.

Police say it might belong to a “collector.” That’s polite of them. I would say it is most probably owned by an occultist.
Curious...
