The mother of a 5-year-old New Hampshire boy who was found dead in a wooded area in Massachusetts has been charged with his murder, prosecutors said Monday. Danielle Dauphinais was indicted by a grand jury Friday on two murder charges “for purposely causing the death” of her son Elijah Lewis, whose body was discovered in October two weeks after he was reported missing, according to the New Hampshire Department of Justice. An autopsy revealed Elijah had fentanyl in his system and succumbed to “violence and neglect,” authorities said, including “facial and scalp injuries, malnourishment and pressure ulcers.”
