Authorities Release Computer-Generated Image of Unidentified Toddler Found Dead A Week Ago

Massachusetts authorities are asking the public to be alert for any children who seem to have gone missing from their communities, their neighborhoods, schools, summer programs, parks, churches or any other places where people gather.

The body of a deceased toddler-age girl was found on June 25 on the western shore of Deer Island in Winthrop. Mass., and authorities have been appealing to the public for help in identifying the little girl for a week now.

As Massachusetts State Police, Winthrop Police and the Suffolk County District Attorney’s Office continue to try to identify the girl, they released a computer-generated composite image of the girl prepared by the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children on Thursday afternoon.

The image depicts what the child may have looked like in life.

Authorities also released images of the leggings she was wearing when found, which are white with black polka dots, and of a black and white zebra-stripe blanket found with the child’s body.

The girl was approximately 4-years-old at the time of her death, had brown eyes and brown hair, and weighed about 30 pounds.

Police are also asking people to look around July 4th gatherings – block parties, cookouts, town fireworks displays – and consider whether a child whom you would have expected to see there is now not present.

Anyone with any information about this toddler or who has information about a missing child is urged to call Massachusetts State Police at (508) 820-2121, a 24-hour number, the Suffolk County State Police Detective Unit at (617) 727-8817, or Winthrop Police at (617) 539-5806.
