A 10-year-old boy was found dead in a garbage can in Rock Island, Ill., last week in the garage of his mother's home, and the mom now faces charges, according to multiple reports.
The Rock Island Police Department launched a probe into a suspicious death at the home last Wednesday, a press release stated, according to TV6.
Police found Zion Staples’ body at a home after being in the trash for seven months, ABC 6 News reported. The outlet, citing authorities, reports that the child's mother, Sushi Staples, 37, is being charged with concealment of a death, failure to report the death of a child under 13 and obstruction of justice.
The body was concealed in a garbage bin inside a garage, the Quad City Timesreports.

A neighbor said she wants to know how it took months to find Zion and what tipped off the police.
“I had a dead raccoon in my backyard, and we put it in a garbage can, I mean, in a garbage bag and then put it in a garbage can. And I couldn’t even stand the smell waiting for garbage day,” the neighbor said. “So I can’t imagine, that with the wind directions, that nobody would smell that.”
The mother appeared in court last Friday. A judge set her bail at $500,000.
Her next hearing is set for Aug. 15.
