McALLEN, Texas (AP) - A south Texas couple has been charged with
abuse of a corpse and tampering with evidence after a fetus was
found in a gift box.
Ruby Lee Medina and Javier Gonzalez were arraigned on charges of
abuse of a corpse and tampering with evidence Monday in San Juan.
Bond was set at $20,000 for both.
San Juan Police Chief Juan Gonzalez tells The McAllen Monitor
that investigators believe the two had tried to abort the fetus
seven months into Medina's pregnancy.
It was not immediately clear if either Medina or Gonzalez had
retained attorneys.
