Bella Bond to be buried in Winthrop, father says
The toddler’s biological father said her funeral will be public.
Bella Bond, the toddler whose body washed up on Deer Island months ago, will be laid to rest in Winthrop, The Boston Globe reported.
Joseph Amoroso, who claims to be the child’s biological father, said the services would be open to the public. He did not know when her wake or funeral would happen, the Globe reported.
“I have a family plot, and that’s where she’ll be buried,’’ he told the Globe. “Right next to her great-grandmother.’’
Amoroso never met his daughter. He has said he returned to Massachusetts from Florida to meet her when Bella’s mom, Rachelle Bond, told him that her boyfriend Michael McCarthy killed Bella.
McCarthy, 35, has been charged with murder, and Bond, 40, has been charged with accessory to murder.
