Massachusetts authorities have released new photos in hopes of identifying a young girl who was discovered dead inside a trash bag.
On June 25, a dog walker found the girl's body on the western shore of Deer Island in Winthrop, a peninsula in Boston Harbor opposite Logan Airport, the Massachusetts state police said. The girl was found with a fleece blanket and wrapped in a trash bag.
There were no signs of trauma, said Dave Procopio, director of media relations for the state police.
