Case Details:
On March, 13 2003, Houston Police, were called to 7575 Office City Drive (Willowbrook Apartments), where they found the body of a young child inside a trash dumpster. The child had been wrapped in a gray colored afghan style blanket and placed in a red and white checkered bag, then thrown into the dumpster. He was wearing only a diaper. The child had been starved to death and he would have appeared very thin before his death. He had extremely bushy eyebrows and long eyelashes. His right ear is far larger than his left ear. He had surgical-type scars on his body: a 1.5-centimeter well-healed scar on the right side of the boy's neck overlying his jugular area could have been from an IV once placed there; the boy also had two small vertical linear scars on his abdomen. Doctors told investigators the boy may have had a gastrostomy tube placed in his stomach at one time, which may be the result of a laparoscopy.
The dumpster was emptied within the twenty-four hours prior to the discovery of the boy's body.
The child has not been buried and will not be indefinitely unless the case is cleared.
