Kassceen Weaver, 49, and Dina D. Weaver, 48, have both been arrested after authorities found their son’s body in a freezer.
The parents of Chesterfield boy were charged with conspiracy to conceal the body of Eliel Adon Weaver, who was believed to be under the age of five at the time of his death, WRIC news station reported.
According to the New York Post, investigators received a tip to search the couple’s home in May, that is when they found the body in a freezer in the garage.
The cause of death has not been released, but authorities say he may have died between two and five years ago.
Chesterfield Police Major Mike Louth said that the state medical examiner’s office “had to bring in some specialists — forensic anthropologists — to determine a way to ‘thaw’ those remains out, so we didn’t lose anything, or do any damage to the remains, so we’d still be able to determine whether there was anything of evidentiary value.”
“This is the first time I’ve seen anything like this. It’s a heartbreaking case to observe,” Louth told reporters.
The parents have also been charged with failure to render aid to the child.
The father has also been charged with domestic assault and malicious wounding of an adult female— but police haven’t released any details about the case.
Both have been released on bond and are scheduled to appear in court on August 5.
