Couple Arrested For Killing Baby And Burying Body In Backyard

DELAWARE- A couple have been arrested and charged after police say they allegedly killed their baby and buried the body in the backyard.

Angel Toran, 22 and Ny’Jier Murphy, 24, never reported the birth of their 5-month-old daughter to the state after the baby was delivered at home in April 2021, Delaware police said in a statement.

Police say the baby girl died from malnourishment in September and was buried in the yard. Her death was never reported to authorities.

A tipster called authorities and told them a baby may have died at the home.

On Oct. 11, the baby’s body was exhumed, and an autopsy was conducted. It was ruled that the baby “succumbed to medical issues associated with malnourishment.”

The couple was arrested and charged on Thursday.

Toran was charged with murder by abuse or neglect and Murphy is facing murder and other possible charges.
