Malnourished 12-Year-Old Boy Found Decomposing in Home Had Been Dead for at Least a Week

A 12-year-old boy was found dead in a Wisconsin home on Tuesday in what is being investigated as a homicide.

Jacarie Robinson’s body was discovered in a Milwaukee home — with medical examiners describing him as “malnourished” and “decomposing.” Robinson’s sister told WISN that authorities believe he had been dead for more than a week.

Meanwhile, Robinson’s uncle revealed to the Journal Sentinel that the 12-year-old was living with his father and two sisters in the home where he was found. His aunt alleged that they have not heard from Robinson’s father since the body was discovered.

“He’s not answering anyone’s calls,” she said.

WISN reported that an autopsy was completed Wednesday, but authorities have not yet revealed a cause of death.

No arrests have been made.
