Summary "Geauga's Child" in Geauga County, Ohio was the only name a dead newborn baby boy had during the 26 years it took to solve this gruesome cold case. The baby was found near Sidley Road in Thompson Township, Ohio on March 25, 1993. The child was partially dismembered and still had his umbilical cord attached. Authorities said the child had been placed in a trash bag and left in a wooded area but was dragged to the side of the road by animals. The case was solved with forensic genetic genealogy using DNA. In June 2019, the newborn's mother, Gail Eastwood-Ritchey of Euclid, Ohio, was arrested and charged with his murder. At that time, she told detectives that this was the second newborn child she had abandoned. In the end, now age 51, Gail Eastwood-Ritchey was found guilty and sentenced to life in prison with the possibility of parole in 15 years.
