A Cheyenne man has pleaded guilty to second-degree murder and felony child abuse in the 2021 death of a two-year-old Cheyenne boy whose body was found in a dumpster, prosecutors say.
The man accused of killing a 2-year-old Cheyenne boy whose body was found in a dumpster made his initial appearance Tuesday in Laramie County Circuit Court.
Exactly two months since his body was found in a dumpster, Athian Rivera's official cause of death has not been released and no one has been charged with his death.
Reid says her office is still waiting on autopsy results to come back on Athian Rivera, the missing 2-year-old Cheyenne boy whose body was found in a dumpster on Feb. 19.
Laramie County District Court Judge Catherine Rogers on Thursday ordered Wyatt Lamb be held without bond pending proceedings in an unrelated strangulation case.
Police say they're working with the coroner to investigate the death of Athian Rivera, the missing 2-year-old Cheyenne boy whose body was found in a dumpster.
Reid says a statement by Cheyenne police that autopsy results showed "there wasn't a conclusive cause of death" in the case of Athian Rivera simply isn't true.
