They also had Funnen’s 3-year-old son with them.

Doctors determined there were “bruises consistent with finger marks” and that the injuries were “highly concerning with physical abuse.” They requested additional testing to determine how severe the internal injuries were.

However, the infant’s parents took off with him from the emergency room before he was examined.

Timeline of child's disappearance:

West Mifflin police said they were given information that they might have been traveling to Florida.

According to investigators, Funnen has had two other children removed from her custody in the past.

“Funnen has a history of providing a ‘false narrative’ regarding her family history, and has attempted to commit suicide during two pregnancies,” investigators said.
