A woman and her husband were charged in Camden with the murder of her 4-year-old son, whose remains were found in a duffel bag in Philadelphia in 1994.
Prosecutors said Jerell Willis was beaten to death by his mother, Alicia Willis Robinson, 32, and her husband, Lawrence Robinson, 35. The couple then allegedly dumped the body in a vacant lot near the Ben Franklin Bridge.
Police would not say how they connected the two to the slaying after so many years.
