'PALMDALE, Calif. — A woman was arrested Thursday for allegedly murdering her 1-year-old daughter, dumping her body along a highway and telling authorities the child was kidnapped.

Stacey Barker, 24, has been under investigation since her toddler was found March 20 in tall grass a few blocks from a Los Angeles highway.

The woman initially reported being knocked out by someone while putting young Emma into her car and waking up to find the child missing. She later recanted the story and claimed the child died in an accident.'
