A woman has pleaded guilty to leaving her newborn baby to die at a lake located on the River in 2003 - as authorities also found her DNA on a second set of remains from 1999. Jennifer Matter, 50, admitted to police that she had given birth to a baby boy at Methodist Beach in 2003 and left him there with no intention of coming back - despite it only being a freezing 32 degrees outside. For years, the town of Red Wing has been searching for the mother, who was arrested on May 10, 2022, in Belvidere Township. DNA samples from both infants were taken and using genealogy, detectives were able to link the baby boy and a baby girl - who were found on the Mississippi River four years apart - to Matter.
