15-month-old Evelyn Boswell was reported missing by her maternal grandfather, Tommy Boswell, Sr. in February of 2020. He stated he had not seen Evelyn since November of 2019. An Amber alert was issued on February 19, 2020. Other accounts say she had been missing since December 10-11 of 2019 which is the last time her babysitter had seen her. Her mother, 18-year-old, Megan Boswell had made a series of contradictory statements to police and the media regarding the whereabouts of her daughter.

Megan was later arrested for false reporting, and while in custody, police located the remains of missing Evelyn Boswell on the Boswell property on March 6, 2020. The investigation was far from over as detectives had to sift through the tangled web of lies spun by Megan to determine what really happened to little Evelyn.
