‘Baby Jane Doe’ Funeral Held for Newborn Found, as Cops Still Searching for Relatives
More than four months after a newborn girl was found dead in a cardboard box along a Southern California highway, community members came together Thursday to pay their respects as authorities continue the search for the girl’s relatives.
