The mother of a 20-month-old child who Georgia authorities believe is dead has been arrested and accused of murder, police said Monday.
In October, Leilani Simon, 22, was named by Chatham County as the “prime suspect" in what police said was the disappearance and death of her son, Quinton Simon.
Leilani Simon reported the toddler missing from his home in an unincorporated part of the county near Savannah on Oct. 5, police have said.
The mother reported him missing at 9:39 a.m., he said.
After Simon was named as the suspect, Hadley said there were no other suspects and no one else was being considered for criminal charges.
