Baby Doe Toddler: Boston Authorities Search For Answers After 4-Year-Old ‘Baby Doe’ Washes Ashore

Baby Doe, a toddler found near Boston, has yet to be identified. According to Mail Online, the body of a 4-year-old girl was found in a trash bag, washed ashore on Deer Island. On June 25, someone walking their dog came across the trash bag and called police.

Since then, the girl’s identity has remained a mystery. While police have been receiving tips, no one has claimed the young girl, and it seems that no one has reported her missing, either. A photo of what the girl might look like now has been released, and anyone with information is being asked to come forward.

“A computer generated artist’s impression of the little girl has drawn massive attention as police continue their tragic quest.”

The Baby Doe toddler has Boston police on high alert. As of now, they do believe that this child was murdered, and police are hoping to connect the dots in the case so that they can make appropriate arrests.

According to Fox News, Baby Doe has brown hair, and brown eyes, and was wearing white pants with black polka dots, and was with a zebra blanket. Police say that the baby was either dropped in the ocean by someone, or the trash bag was just dumped on the shore. Despite research efforts, no concrete answers have been found.

“Divers have searched the coastline, and the Coast Guard has worked to analyze currents, but few answers have been found.”

As previously reported by the Inquisitr, police have been looking through missing persons reports, and have asked for the public’s help in identifying this young girl.

“Who she is and where she’s from remain a mystery to us. Since that time, state and local police have been trying to identify her through missing persons reports and appeals to the public. Those efforts have not yet been successful,” said Suffolk County District Attorney Dan Conley.

Anyone with information about the Boston toddler identified only as “Baby Doe” is asked to call the Suffolk County State Police Detective Unit at (617) 727-8817 or the Winthrop Police at (617) 539-5806.

In the time being, baby doe will have a funeral. The toddler will be mourned in Boston, her services paid for by Massachusetts Water Resources Authority workers. It is unknown when the funeral will take place, or how long the toddler’s body will be kept for claiming.
