The mother and father were arrested after driving their son's body to Pomona, police said.
A mother and father from Barstow were arraigned Thursday on felony charges, including murder, in connection with the death of their 1-year-old son.
The document did not contain details about the abuse or any other information about the investigation besides the charges. Mendez and Miller drove to Pomona with their son on Monday and arrived unexpectedly at Mendez’s relatives’ home around 7 p.m., according to a statement Tuesday by the Barstow Police Department.
Detectives saw that the boy suffered “injuries consistent with ongoing abuse,” including lesions, bruising and burn marks on his body, police said.
