Another baby, look at him. More horrible parents/people. I wonder if they've known these months that a body was found where it was even while LE was on trying to determine who it was. They would know where they had dumped him.

Human remains found in Galax in 2022 have been identified as a 5-year-old Grayson County boy who went missing 20 years ago.
On September 6, 2022, the Carroll County Sheriff’s Office (CCSO) responded to the area of Iron Ridge Road in Galax for reported human remains found in a wooded area. Throughout the investigation, it was determined that the remains had been in that area for a long time, according to the CCSO.
The sheriff’s office received help from Othram Inc., a private company based in Texas specializing in Forensic-Grade Genome Sequencing and Forensic Genetic Genealogy. Othram Inc. was able to develop a full DNA profile which allowed them to use Forensic Genetic Genealogy, and two direct DNA comparisons of family members to identify the remains as Logan Nathaniel Bowman.
Bowman was a 5-year-old child who went missing in Grayson County in January of 2003.
Bowman's biological mother Cynthia Davis and her then-boyfriend Dennis Schermerhorn were charged in 2003 in connection to his disappearance. The sheriff’s office said this is still an ongoing investigation and new charges are anticipated.

20 years bites but out of the blue he was found and they are going down as they should. HOPEFULLY it isn't looked at by a jury as old and not important, i am wondering in that other case with the old man and the child. I think almost always juries are better than that and smarter but when seeing someone who is older and who has maybe been in no trouble the decades after in their lheir life and the victim is long gone, I worry they go soft... Or one might. Generally I always believe in juries but these old ones are harder.I don't remember his case at all. Poor little boy. I hope they get life without parole!!!! Unfortunately Virginia was the first southern state to abolish the death penalty.
The missing person lived only blocks from where the body was found at the time the missing person report was filed and nobody linked them???Atlanta man burned to death in 1996 kerosene attack identified
A man who was brutally killed in 1996 when he was doused in kerosene and lit on fire during a suspected robbery in Atlanta has been identified thanks to the work of a nonprofit group.
The DNA Doe Project announced Thursday that its volunteer researchers had identified David Brown as the man who died from severe burns after the attack in southeast Atlanta on April 24, 1996. The Fulton County Medical Examiner’s Office shared a sample of Brown’s DNA with the group earlier this year, and the victim was identified as Brown after researchers pieced together his family tree.
Brown was found in a vacant lot at the corner of Dorothy and Lansing streets suffering from burns over most of his body when police responded, The Atlanta Constitution reported at the time. Police told the newspaper the man screamed for help and told witnesses he’d been attacked with kerosene by someone trying to rob him. His condition was considered critical when he was taken to Grady Memorial Hospital, where he later died. Brown had no form of ID on him and his fingerprints could not be taken.
Brown was reported missing by his family around the time of the attack, according to the DNA Doe Project, and the vacant lot was just a few blocks from his home. However, the two cases were not linked until this year.
The group used the DNA sample from the Fulton ME to create a genetic profile of the victim. Then, volunteer genealogists spent months researching and building his family tree.
