"The little girl had lived, at most, 730 days or so. Someone had hidden her body in the thicket of branches and poison ivy off Ocean Parkway on the South Shore of Long Island. By the time the police discovered her on April 4, the remains had turned skeletal."
"While the other victims had clearly been murdered, Suffolk County officials said, the toddler’s body showed no sign of injury or trauma, and her death has not been classified as a homicide."
"A spokesman for the Suffolk County Police Department said that DNA tests had not yet been completed, and that if the tests did not lead to an identification, officials might seek the public’s help."
"One clue suggesting that the toddler’s parent or guardian was involved is the blanket. ...wrapping the toddler in a blanket suggested an emotional connection between the child and the person disposing of the body. The gesture itself was something a mother might do."
"It is not clear if the little girl was ever reported missing."
"At the site where she was found, the tangled and thorny branches stretch so high and thick that they form a kind of impenetrable wall...It is one of those forlorn places on the side of the road where bits of trash and car parts and license plates end up."
"The police cut a path into the brush and made a small clearing where the body was found: She appeared to have been laid on a patch of dirt about 50 steps from the edge of Ocean Parkway, at the foot of a thin tree, leafless and largely branchless."
