CALIFORNIA CITY, Calif. -- Two young brothers died three months before their adoptive parents, who have been arrested on murder charges, reported them missing in late 2020, the Kern County district attorney announced Wednesday.
The boys' bodies have not been found, Zimmer said, adding:"However, I would like to emphasize the fact that law enforcement has not found their bodies does not preclude a murder prosecution. As a matter of fact, there have been many hundreds of what we call 'no body homicides' prosecuted across the United States, successfully.
Police launched a search of the area, which was later joined by the FBI, California Highway Patrol, a Kern County sheriff's search and rescue team, and members of the community. The search expanded to Bakersfield, about 60 miles to the west, where the boys lived before moving in September 2020.Kern County District Attorney Cynthia Zimmer provides an update on the arrest of Trezell and Jacqueline West for the murder of their adopted sons Orrin and Orson West.
