A mother has been arrested for the murder of her baby, who was found in a grocery bag 30 years ago.

After nearly 30 years, a mother, Pamela Ferreyra, has finally been arrested for the murder of her newborn son. The tragic discovery was made when a man collecting aluminum cans stumbled upon a grocery bag along Garin Road in California's Las Lomas area. Little did he know, inside that bag were the remains of Baby Garin, who had been killed and left to die on the side of the road.

According to deputy spokesperson Andy Rosas, the man was horrified when he opened the bag and found the baby's body. It was a sight that no one should ever have to witness. The Monterey County Sheriff's Office recently announced a major breakthrough in the cold case and revealed that they were able to identify Ferreyra as the suspect with the help of advancements in DNA technology.

Through follow-up interviews and DNA samples, they were able to gather enough evidence to charge Ferreyra with the murder of her own child. It is believed that Baby Garin was born alive sometime between November 1, 1994, and December 3, 1994. However, the exact cause of death could not be determined from the autopsy.

Assistant District Attorney Matt L'Heureux shared that it is not uncommon for suspects to believe they have gotten away with a crime for many years, only to be caught when advancements in technology allow for further investigation. He also expressed relief that they were able to finally bring justice to Baby Garin's case after three decades.

On Thursday morning, Ferreyra was arrested without incident at her home in Watsonville. She has been charged with one count of murder and was brought before a judge on Friday. As of now, she remains in custody at the Monterey County Jail with a bail set at $1 million.

Ferreyra is not the only suspect to be taken into custody recently thanks to advances in DNA testing. In April, the Smith County Sheriff's Office in Texas and the DNA Doe Project identified the skeletal remains of a mother who had been a cold case for 40 years. These breakthroughs give hope to many families who have been searching for answers and closure for decades.
