Coos County boy, 5, was on the radar of child welfare workers when he died; no arrests expected, prosecutor says

The Coos County district attorney stated on Wednesday that exposure and hypothermia were factors in the death of the 5-year-old kid whose body was discovered two miles from his house last month.

On November 9, Joshua James McCoy disappeared. Angela German, 43, Joshua’s mother, told police that she woke up from a nap she had taken with her son and found him gone. According to her, the youngster had autism, didn’t talk much, and disliked wearing clothes. People with autism often react by feeling uneasy about their clothes.
