Cops have finally confirmed the identity of 'America's Unknown Child' to be Joseph Augustus Zarelli

Police have finally revealed the identity of the mysterious "Boy in the Box" to be Joseph Augustus Zarelli after 65 years. The infamous child also known as 'America's Unknown Child' was abandoned inside a box in 1957 in the Fox Chase neighbourhood of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

At the time of the crime, police were unable to identify the child's killer and Joseph was buried in an unnamed grave that read "heavenly father bless this unknown boy". The case was then uploaded into a FBI database in 2014 and the body was exhumed again in 2019 to gain additional samples. After a long two and a half years, the DNA was finally at a point where it could be properly studied for a match.
