Investigator Reveals Details About Discovered Body; Had “Exact Clothing” as Missing Toddler

New details were revealed about the discovery of a child’s body on the property of the relatives of a Tennessee woman whose daughter was reported missing last month. The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation Special Agent Brian Fraley said that the body discovered in Blountville had the “exact clothing” that Megan Boswell said her daughter, 15-month-old Evelyn Mae Boswell, was wearing when she went missing.

“Fraley said a body of a child approximately one year to one-and-a-half years old was found during a search at a home in the 500 block of Muddy Creek Road belonging to Megan’s father, brother, and grandmother,” said a WJHL report.

According to Fraley, other clothing, diapers, and toys that would have belonged to the child were also found on the property.

Fox News reported that 18-year-old Megan Boswell was charged with filing a false report in her daughter’s disappearance and has been held in the Sullivan County jail. Fraley testified that Boswell made “inculpatory statements” during interviews with investigators since her daughter went missing. Fox News explained that inculpatory statements are legally described as implying or placing guilt.

WJHL reported that Judge James Goodwin increased Megan’s bond to $150,000 during the hearing in Sullivan County court. It had previously been set at $25,000.

Results of an autopsy are still pending.
