In a video published to social media Sunday, a woman who identified herself as the baby’s mother said she put her son in the trash. Claiming to have fallen asleep with Kyon, she indicated she rolled over and then noticed he was unresponsive.

The woman said she panicked, got a blanket and his car seat, wrapped it up and put Kyon in the trash.

8News was not given permission to share the video where the admission was made.

8News has also chosen not to share the woman’s name, because police have not formally announced any charges.

Investigators believe the little boy's body has been dumped and are dumpster diving and trash sifting at several landfills that accept DC Metro trash, Crime Insider Sources told Jon Burkett.

They're also searching in trash trucks and piles in Northern Virginia.

[...]

"At this time, the child has not been located," Charles City County Sheriff’s wrote in a statement on the case.

As a chopper buzzed overheard Monday, to get an aerial view of the landfill, deputies tell us so far the search yielded no clues, with no word on if they'll search again Tuesday.

Wow. I am going to pray that the landfill keeps decent records on where trash loads end up once inside the landfill. Even with a decent system, it's an insanely difficult task for the investigators. I had no idea they were trucking the District's trash that far away. It's a couple hours from D.C.

IMO

I'm just sick....

 

[ms_x_to_the_m]

there is so much disconnect with mom and baby. Why didn't anyone else see it? She calls him it, wrapped it up, put it in the trash.
I am sorry baby Kyon, you deserve so much more

I would be interested to know the living situation of this family. Articles have indicated that Kyon has siblings. It sounds like the mom was familiar enough with CFS to initially claim they came and took the baby. If that is the case, it really does make you wonder how no one noticed something was off.

IMO

Baby last seen noon ish Wednesday, reported missing Friday, trash search Monday. That's 5 days, and numerous dumping locations.
Moo...

Some people should never, ever have children and this woman is one of them.

"I wrapped it up, took it out side and disposed of it in the trash…and that’s what happened."

Praying they find precious baby Kyon.

Heartbreaking.

I don't believe this story. If you accidentally smothered your baby in the bed, you'd call 911. You might react in different ways, be it panic or shock, but you would call 911. Just my opinion.

Two-month-old Kyon Jones stopped breathing as he and his mother, LaDonia Boggs, were in bed together, she said in video shot by D.C. missing-persons advocate Henderson Long.

“The last thing that I remember was that I had rolled over, and he was on my chest. After that, when I was ‘sleep, rolled over, noticed he was unresponsive — breathing — and I panicked,” she said, at times repeating herself.

Police sources told News4 the account Boggs gave on the video is similar to an account she gave police, which led them to search the landfill in the Richmond area. They also searched Boggs’ home, sources said.

This is just so sad ,and no reason for it that poor little one never had a chance . I really don't understand why they don't give the child up at birth children aren't meant to be disposable. Jmoo

Can I just say after I had my daughter, I would have nightmares that she would fall off my chest, where she was resting. I was 19 and exhausted. After 3-4 nights waking up in terror that I had dropped her, I would get up and take her to the living room for middle of the night feedings. It would wake me enough to not fall asleep while I was holding her. It was sooo terrifying, I was sure I had her, but apparently I had put her in her crib, then gone back to bed.

I think if things did happen like she says, she probably felt relieved at finding him dead, and just reacted. Not excusing her, but it does appear that she hasn't bonded with Kyon.

Rest sweet, precious baby. Be at peace.
