DNA from soda bottle allegedly links Massachusetts woman to 1985 murder of 'Baby Boy Doe'
Dianne Curry Peck, 59, faces murder charges in the 1985 death of her newborn son, 'Baby Boy Doe,' whose body was found in Massachusetts woods. DNA from a soda bottle in Peck's trash linked her to the child, and the case was reopened in 2022 using forensic genetic genealogy. Peck pleaded not guilty, claiming she gave the baby to her ex-boyfriend for adoption, but prosecutors dispute her timeline.
