Police in Wyong on the NSW Central Coast investigate whether cannibalism is linked to the alleged murder of a four-year-old boy, following a charge against the child’s mother. Multiple outlets report that the matter is before investigators after the boy was found dead and that police have opened inquiries into reports relating to cannibalism. The investigation includes determining the circumstances surrounding the boy’s death and assessing whether any such claims form part of the case.
The outlets also report that a 32-year-old woman has been charged with murder in connection with the boy’s death. One report says she attended Wyong Police Station at about 4.40pm on Saturday, while other coverage focuses on the charge and the parallel investigation into cannibalism.
At this stage, the information presented by the outlets is based on police and reporting accounts and does not establish that cannibalism occurred—only that police are investigating whether it is connected to the allegations. Further details about evidence and timelines are not provided in the supplied extracts.
