Ok hopefully I'm wrong but something doesn't smell right here.  5 yo's can be pretty small but this seems strange.

A five-year-old in Alabama was found dead in a laundry hamper, with those close to her describing her as a "precious, smart and inquisitive child," police said.

The Trussville Police Department identified the child as Khloe Teresa Williamson. 

Authorities said that the tragic incident happened just after 6:30 a.m. on Monday, November 13. 

Authorities said that Williamson was found by her family members in a laundry hamper in the family's residence.

The five-year-old was immediately transported to St. Vincent’s East by Trussville Fire and Rescue after she was found.

The Trussville Tribune, a local newspaper, said that officers confirmed that an autopsy revealed no trauma or signs of foul play. Police are awaiting the toxicology report to make a final determination in the case, but say the death appears accidental.

In a statement from Trussville City Schools posted on X, Superintendent Dr. Patrick Martin said the girl was the daughter of a teacher in the school district.

"This student was a precious, smart and inquisitive child whose heartbreaking loss affects us all," Martin said. "This is a very sad and tragic event, and our thoughts and prayers are with the family. We are arranging to have counselors on-site for our students and staff in the wake of this tragedy.

They’re illegal in new construction here in CT.  Could have been a second floor to the basement, straight down.  Broken neck, who knows?  I can’t even imagine what those parents are going through.

Aren't you thinking of a laundry chute? I don't think that's what the story is talking about but if it is then it would make more sense of her being killed in one.

Yeah I thought it was the same, could be wrong.

Tragic. It’s just weird how these stories gain national attention. 

White parents and their neglect. This kind of stuff is only in the privileged areas where they actually have hampers
