This absolutely breaks my heart because it sounds like this could have been prevented. CPS had been previously called to the home. RIP beautiful boy. If this is a duplicate, please merge as I could not find this anywhere.

ECHO PARK, LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- The mother of an 11-year-old boy has been arrested after the boy's body was found in a closet at their Echo Park home, authorities announced Tuesday.
Veronica Aguilar, 39, was booked on suspicion of child endangerment resulting in death or great bodily injury, the Los Angeles Police Department said in a statement.
An investigation indicated the boy suffered from signs of malnutrition and physical abuse, according to the LAPD.
Officers responded about 2:15 p.m. Monday to the 2200 block of Sunset Boulevard, where they met with the victim's stepfather, Jose Pinzon. The man told the officers that Aguilar, his wife, had told him that her son was dead, the news release said.
