A church service was held Wednesday for Joseph Augustus Zarelli, the child victim of Philadelphia's oldest-running cold case who became known as ‘The Boy in the Box.’
Zarelli was just 4-years-old when police discovered his badly bruised and naked body inside a bassinet box near Susquehanna Road in Philadelphia's Fox Chase neighborhood in February 1957.
"Apathy never set in, people never stopped caring when it came to Joseph Augustus Zarelli," Reverend Christopher Walsh said at Wednesday's service.
