They're not releasing names of parents at this time.

Wow, he has living siblings. I'm so glad for them.

Siblings still living. Parents will not be ID'd. YET.

This remains an active criminal investigation.

I wonder if his living siblings even knew Joseph existed.

No named suspects but apparently LE has someone(s) in mind

Living siblings... this is sure to be a weird and difficult time for them, if they didn't know. I'm sure they would've been aware of the unidentified child, imagine finding out that it's your sibling.

Not releasing the parents’ names in this press conference will now result in the media staking out every Zarelli between Philadelphia and West Chester. Unfortunate.

Note that it took 3.5 years to get to this point, from the time they disinterred him in April 2019, to find his DNA with modern techniques.

The older ones, I'd say yes. It sounds like there are at least a couple of others, born after him.

Multiple siblings on both the maternal and paternal side...I wonder if any of them actually knew about Joseph? It's very possible they didn't and this is a terrible way to have to find out!
