The adoptive parents of a Crittenden County seven-year-old who was kidnapped last week want DNA testing to prove that a body found in a field is hers. Autopsy results show that the little girl presumed to be Patricia Ann Miles was suffocated. Officials announced the cause of death today. Awaiting the results of the tests will delay a funeral for Patricia for at least two weeks. Her adoptive mother, Vickie Robertson, said today that the family wants to confirm the identity of the child`s body found five days after Patricia disappeared. The girl`s birth mother, Patricia Miles of Gilmore, has given a blood sample to use for comparison in the DNA test. A woman who sometimes babysat Patricia, Jo Ann Buchanan, has been charged with kidnapping her. No charges have been filed in the child`s death.
