Suero’s son Jonathan died on March 12 under mysterious circumstances. Members of the Charlotte Mecklenburg Police Department responded to the call that a 2-year old boy was found face up in a pond in NC. Ambulance crews and first responders could not revive the boy who was pronounced dead.
Taken into custody without incident, Ms. Suero was arraigned in Irvington Village Court by Judge Desmond Lyons and was subsequently remanded to the Westchester County Department of Corrections, awaiting extradition back to North Carolina. Natalia Suero gave police vague and inconsisten statements about how her son died, according to media reports, by saying she blacked out during the time of her son’s death and could not provide a timeline.
A search warrant for Suero’s apartment yielded phone records that supported a police theory that the mother was lying about the fact that she found her son lying face up in the water. The CMPD now believe that young Jonathan was murdered, and the prime suspect is his mother, who fled the state.
Suero was charged and remanded to the Westchester County Department of Corrections to await extradition back to North Carolina.
