Summary

When Joseph Augustus Zarelli’s remains were discovered in 1957, the city of Philadelphia was horrified. He was only four years old, and his identity was unknown then. Hundreds of thousands of flyers with his photo were distributed across the country, and his case became one of if not the most notorious in the city’s history. It took over 60 years and new technology to finally identify him, and now that investigators have his name, and are still working hard to find his killer. Joseph Augustus Zarelli was white, with blue eyes and brown hair. When he was killed, he was 3’6” and weighed approximately 30lbs. Anyone with information is asked to call the Philadelphia Police Department at 215-686-8686. For more information about the show, visit VoicesforJusticePodcast.com.
