Samuel was first reported missing on May 27 by Balboa and his father, Dalton Olson, though police say he hasn t been seen publicly since April 30.
Now, new court documents released on Thursday suggest that Samuel - who is yet to be officially declared dead - may have actually died more than two weeks before police were called.
Charging documents state that Balboa s roommate, Benjamin Rivera, told investigators that he was called by Balboa on May 10 who informed him that Samuel was dead.
Rivera said he raced out of work and returned home to find Samuel laying on the bed unresponsive.

A 5-year-old missing boy whose body was found in a motel room in Texas may have been dead for weeks, court papers have revealed.
Samuel Olson was reported missing by his father, Dalton Olson, on May 27. On June 1, Houston Police said a body found in a motel in Jasper was believed to be the 5-year-old boy and Theresa Balboa, Dalton Olson s girlfriend, had been taken into custody.
Court documents now state that Samuel might have died as far back as May 10, and that Balboa had left the child s body in a bathtub for two days before moving him to different locations in a plastic storage box.
The Texas woman who has been charged with tampering with evidence for allegedly hiding a child's lifeless body in a storage container for weeks was transported to the Harris County Jail on Friday.
