Summary

Timestamp to skip intro: (8:45)

In 2019, Evelyn Boswell (15 months) was seen alive for the last time, reportedly by a babysitter in Blountville, Tennessee.

Evelyn was not reported missing until February 2020. Her grandfather raised the alarm after he said he had not seen the child since Thanksgiving.

Authorities started investigating and zeroed in on Evelyn’s mother, Megan ‘Maggie’ Boswell. Megan gave varying accounts of where the child was and repeatedly lied to law enforcement.

In March 2020, Evelyn’s tiny body was found with her head wrapped in aluminum foil. She had been stuffed into a trash can and discarded like waste.

Megan would be arrested and charged with Evelyn’s murder. Now, five years later, Megan’s trial has just concluded and she has been found guilty of killing her daughter.
