The Boy in the Box

HIS NAME IS JOSEPH AUGUSTUS ZARELLI THIS AND OTHER CASES WILL BE DISCUSSED Jan 2023 in updates The Boy in the box is one of Philadelphia's enduring mysteries. Who was the little boy found battered bruised and deceased in a box, in the Fox Chase section of Philadelphia? Who was this child who was found in a box that's outside read "Fragile Handle with Care" but in life did not receive any kind of care? He got much love and affection in death from the investigators and people who spent years trying to find out the identity of the child than he ever did in life. 
Follow this tragic tale of this unknown child and listen in on the clues that dropped like the tear drops that must have fallen down his once alive bruised and tattered cheeks.
It is a never ending mystery, one that has stayed with the city since that cold February day in 1957 when he was found in a field, thrown alongside a road when he should have been home sleeping in a nice warm, cared for bed.

The mystery of Barbara Jean Horn is also revealed at the end of this mystery, and although it is no mystery where Barbara Jean came from, it sure is a mystery of who killed her, and left her inside a box in the Northeast section of Philadelphia, July 12, 1988
