A New Jersey woman who disappeared along with her 2 year old son has been found dead in a wooded area in Tennessee, according to her family and authorities. The boy was found alive and unharmed.
Police arrested Tyler, 27, in Tennessee on Saturday. He is facing a kidnapping charge in connection with taking his son. Authorities said charges related to the death of the boy’s mother, Yasemin, 24, were still pending. Tyler is accused of the allegations and has not been convicted.
An Amber Alert was issued Friday after the toddler did not arrive at daycare and Yasemin did not show up for work. Police quickly identified Tyler as a suspect. Reports say he and the child were found about 15 hours after the alert was issued in Monterey, Tennessee.
Yasemin’s mother told CBS2 that Tyler told authorities where her daughter’s body was, and police then found her remains in a nearby wooded area. Friends of Yasemin also told the station there was a history of abuse and that she had a restraining order. One friend described the situation as a “textbook case of domestic violence.”
Tyler is being held in a Tennessee jail while he awaits extradition to New Jersey. Baller Alert sends condolences to Yasemin’s family and friends.
