Teen Mum May Be Executed After Failing To Report Her Toddler Daughter Had Gone Missing For Two Months

Published

on

19-year-old, Megan Boswell, could face the death penalty if it is found she murdered her own daughter, 15-month-old Evelyn.

The mysterious death was exposed in March this year when concerned granddad Tommy Boswell grew suspicious after not seeing his young granddaughter for a number of weeks.

Little Evelyn was reportedly last seen alive in December last year and she was not reported missing until February.

After she was reported missing, her remains were then tragically uncovered in a garden shed by granddad Tommy the following month. Reports have suggested the toddler died around the same time she went missing.

The Metro reports that prosecutors in the case believe Evelyn died due to abuse or neglect, although an exact cause of death is yet to be revealed.

The report also states prosecutors are debating whether to push for the death penalty or life behind bars for Megan, if she be proven guilty.

A court hearing was held via video link on Friday which saw Megan deny charges against her, which included crimes of abusing a corpse over claims the toddler’s body was moved after her death.

The defendant is also accused of lying about her daughter’s disappearance, and for blaming it on the young girl’s father, Ethan Perry.

Ethan was on military service at the time of Evelyn’s disappearance and is not a suspect in the case.

Metro also states: “The alleged killer mom is also said to have implicated her own mother Angela Boswell, 42, after claiming Evelyn had disappeared when Angela took her camping.

“Angela Boswell and William McCloud currently face theft charges over a BMW linked to Evelyn’s disappearance, and remain in jail while a grand jury considers charges against them.”

A Sullivan County Grand Jury returned a 19-count indictment against Boswell last week, charging Boswell with two counts of felony murder, one count of aggravated child abuse, one count of aggravated child neglect, one count of tampering with evidence, 12 counts of false reporting, one count of abuse of a corpse, one count of failure to report a death under suspicious or unusual circumstances.

The Nigeria Postal Service (NIPOST) has said it is working on a close partnership with the Lagos State Government to boost e-commerce in the state.

The Postmaster-General/Chief Executive Officer of NIPOST, Ms. Tola Odeyemi stated this on Wednesday during a courtesy visit to the State Governor, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu.

According to her, a partnership with Lagos State would enable the Service to optimize last-mile delivery and ensure seamless connectivity within the city and across the nation.

“The e-commerce sector is rapidly expanding, and Lagos is at the forefront of this growth. Through enhanced postal and logistics services, we aim to support small businesses and individuals participating in e-commerce,” she stated.

While noting that one of her primary goals, as the Postmaster-General, is to foster strategic partnerships that would enhance the efficiency and relevance of NIPOST’s services in a rapidly evolving world, the NIPOST boss said:

“I see Lagos State as a critical partner in achieving this vision, given its status as the economic hub of Nigeria.”

Odeyemi said the courtesy visit to Governor Sanwo-Olu shows the importance of partnership in governance and service delivery, saying NIPOST is ready to collaborate with the Lagos State Government to drive innovation, boost economic development, and enhance public service delivery.

She also praised the Babajide Sanwo-Olu administration for several programs held in December that attracted many people in the diaspora to travel to Lagos for ‘Detty December.’

Speaking earlier, Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu charged the Postmaster-General to challenge the status quo for a sustainable change for today and future needs.

He urged the Nigerian Postal Service to use technology as an enabler to enhance the ease of doing business in Lagos State and Nigeria.

The Governor also reiterated the commitment of the Lagos State Government to collaborate with the NIPOST office service centres to improve its physical spaces and enhance e-commerce as well as the movement and sales of goods.
“You and your team need to think outside of the box make a difference and revamp NIPOST. Don’t be shy about challenging the status quo.

“Don’t be shy about saying you want to change what you met because the people who created those things several years ago did what was obtainable then. If you want an organisation that will meet today’s and future needs, change is a reality,” Governor Sanwo-Olu advised the Postmaster-General.
