A couple in Heaton Mersey, a suburb of the English town of Stockport, found the skeletal, unidentified remains of a baby in a suitcase while cleaning out their attic. The boy could have died as early as 1959, or died a violent death.
The gruesome discovery took place in March 2022, but details of the gruesome discovery have only now emerged after an inquest into the death was opened at the city’s coroners on Wednesday morning.
Baby’s death mysterious
Coroner Claire Smith told senior coroner Alison Mutch that the baby’s identity had not yet been established, according to the Daily Mail, although DNA analysis of the ‘skeletal remains’ showed they belonged to a male child. She could not provide more accurate information.
A Home Office pathologist carried out an autopsy but could not determine the cause of death, the hearing heard. They indicated that they wanted to get in touch with former tenants of the semi-detached house.
