The toddler's parents, Sukhjinder Sran, 42, and Briseida Sran, 29, are accused of their son's murder.

The Srans first reported their son missing on July 15. A week later, burned remains believed to be Thaddeus Sran were discovered by cadaver dogs in a rural area of Madera County.

On July 24, the couple was arrested on suspicion of murder. The two have pleaded not guilty in court.
