Teen’s Remains Found at Landfill | New Orleans News
from New Orleans News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
After a six-week, multi-agency search at a Louisiana landfill, authorities believe they’ve found the remains of 15-year-old Ja’Derrius Minniweather — matching his missing clothing and confirmed by DNA pending. The breakthrough came from surveillance footage showing the body dumped in a trash can on June 22nd, leading investigators to narrow the search to a half-acre area. Maurice Parms, 51, remains jailed on first-degree murder charges after allegedly killing Minniweather in a dispute and staging the disposal. Teams in protective gear combed through hazardous waste for weeks, with officials thanking all involved for bringing this young man home — while the investigation continues.
