… finally has his name back.

Joseph Augustus Zarelli. A four year old boy, whose murdered body was found dumped in a box in 1957. It’s taken until 2022 to finally give this poor child his identity back. I’ve been aware of this case for a few years, and genuinely didn’t think it would ever be ‘solved’. Of course, both his parents are dead, so will never be held accountable for the horrendous treatment he likely endured at their hands. That poor child, he never had a chance. I’m glad he at least had his name back.

It's absolutely awful, wanted to warn people though that the wiki page has postmortem photos of poor Joseph, so maybe a trigger warning? Not something would frequently say but maybe necessary?

I'm so glad to read he's finally been identified. RIP little Joseph
