(OWEN CO.) — The man being held in connection to an Owen County toddler’s death will appear in court Monday.

Kyle Parker faces preliminary charges including, two counts of obstruction of justice, unlawful disposition of a dead body and failure to report a dead body.

He will appear in court via video at 1 p.m. on Monday according to the Owen County jail.

According to Owen County Sheriff Leonard Hobbs, Parker hasn't been talking with investigators.

Sheriff Hobbs says he couldn't give details on what investigators have learned so far about Shaylyn Ammerman's disappearance. But he said investigators are looking into other persons of interest in the case.

On March 23, 1-year-old Shaylyn Ammerman was reported missing. Family members say she was stolen out of her crib.

On March 24, Indiana State Police found the girl's body a few miles from where she was last seen.

The Owen County Coroner confirmed that Shaylyn died by asphyxiation. The coroner ruled the case a homicide.
