A New Jersey mother was taken into custody on Wednesday, indicted on charges including the murder of her toddler son a year ago, prosecutors said.
Tynaizha Brown, 24, of Camden, was arrested about 10:20 a.m. after a Camden County grand jury indicted her in connection with the death of her 22-month-old.
The investigation began on Oct. 11, 2018, when a passer-by found the decomposing remains of a toddler in an alley in Camden. Investigators said they believed the body of the boy, Jah’vi Brown, had been there for at least two weeks, Fox 29 reported.

Further investigation revealed that Jah'vi was last seen on Aug. 20, 2018, in Bellmawr, Fox 29 reported, adding that neither parent reported the child missing before Dec. 6.
