The mother of Wisconsin toddler Elijah Vue and her boyfriend face charges in the death of the boy who had gone missing for nearly seven months before his remains were discovered in early September, court records show. The toddler’s remains were found on private property just over 3 miles northwest of where he was originally reported missing, as CNN previously reported. Elijah’s caretaker at the time of his disappearance, Jesse Vang, the boyfriend of the boy’s mother, is facing charges of physical abuse of a child, repeated acts causing death; hiding a corpse; and obstructing an officer, court records show. The 3-year-old’s mother, Katrina Bauer, is facing charges of chronic neglect of a child, consequence is death; child neglect; and two counts of obstructing an officer, the court records show. Vang and Baur had previously pleaded not guilty to felony child neglect and other charges stemming from alleged incidents before the toddler’s disappearance, court records show. CNN has reached out to attorneys for Vang and Baur for comment regarding the new charges.
