The family of a 6-year-old Chicago boy are accused of killing him, a day after reporting him missing.
According to reports, FBI agents found the naked body of Damari Perry wrapped in a trash bag near an abandoned house in Indiana on Saturday. The body had been partially burned, while his internal organs were found to be partially frozen.
His cause of death was determined to be hypothermia in an autopsy report on Monday, with the coroner ruling it a homicide. A day later, police charged three people in connection with the young boy’s death: his own mother, 38-year-old Jannie Perry (above, left), and two of his siblings.
Jannie was the one who first reported the boy missing on January 5, along with his 20-year-old brother Jeremiah Perry (above, right). The pair claimed Damari’s 16-year-old sister had taken him to a party the previous night, and that they were driven there by a man and woman. The sister alleged that she had several drinks at the party and fell asleep, claiming that when she woke up, both the man and her little brother were gone.
