Police have recommended 27-year-old Wyatt Lamb who d been unlawfully living with Rivera s mother since August after allegedly strangling her in February 2020 be charged with murder and aggravated child abuse in Rivera s death, but District Attorney Leigh Anne Grant Manlove s office has yet to file any charges in the case.
A Wyoming man suspected of killing a toddler boy apparently strangled the child’s mother previously but was still living with her despite a judge ordering him not to.
Laramie Live reports that Laramie County District Court Judge Catherine Rogers ordered 27-year-old Wyatt Lamb to remain behind bars without bail for breaking his bond conditions from a previous charge. Although Lamb is suspect of killing 1-year-old Athian Rivera, the prosecution hasn’t yet charged him since the initial autopsy reports were inconclusive.
Lamb was arrested, however, for reportedly breaking bond requirements after he was found to be living with the child’s mother, Kassandra Orona, who he’s accused of strangling during an unrelated case that occurred last year. The victim told police at the time that Lamb hit her in the back of the head and put her in a chokehold from behind.
Officials are still unsure how a Wyoming boy died after an autopsy couldn’t determine the cause of death. “We did receive autopsy results, but there wasn’t a conclusive cause of death or anything like that,” Public Information Officer Alex Farkas told KGAB Radio. As CrimeOnline previously reported,
