Cannibalism claims as mother charged with 4yo son’s murder
Police are investigating possible cannibalism after the boy was found with significant arm injuries and the mother allegedly confessed, officials said.
- Australian police charged a 32-year-old mother with murder on Saturday following the discovery of her four-year-old son's body at a Byron Street property in Wyong, New South Wales.
- The woman allegedly told police she 'carried out acts of cannibalism' on her son when turning herself in at the Wyong Police Station on Saturday at 4.40pm.
- NSW Police Superintendent Chad Gillies described the scene as 'extremely confronting,' confirming the child had 'significant' arm injuries during the welfare check at the unit.
- The accused did not appear for a bail hearing on Sunday and was denied bail; a coroner will conduct a post-mortem next week to determine the cause of death.
- Mechanic Glenn Winterbottom, who repaired the mother's vehicle, said he saw no trouble between them, while neighbour Harley Chislett called the boy a 'little angel' before the case returns to court September 1.
