A social worker accepted a bribe to “look the other way” before a 5-year-old boy was found buried in the backyard of a Cleveland home last month.

In a news conference Wednesday afternoon, prosecutors said that, had the social worker been doing her job, she would have been in the home, witnessing the deplorable conditions

The prosecutor also announced Wednesday the arrest of a second person in connection to 5-year-old Jordan Rodriguez’s death. The boy’s mother, 34-year-old Larissa Rodriguez, was already charged with murder. Now her boyfriend, Christopher Rodriguez, is also facing a murder charge.

Rodriguez was in the Medina County Jail at the time of Larissa’s arrest for an unrelated case.
