The G.B.I. also said they arrested Odom's mother and her live-in boyfriend at the time in connection to her death.
G.B.I. Special Agent Jason Seacrist said "Both Evelyn and Ulyster were arrested without incident on Thursday, November 9th, 2023."
"Finally, after almost 35 years, not only were we able to identify her remains of who Baby Jane Doe was, but we were also able to make the arrest of those that we believe were responsible," Seacrist said.
Among the charges Evelyn and Ulyster face include felony murder, first-degree child cruelty and conspiracy to conceal a death.

The G.B.I. also said they received a tip about a missing girl shortly after local news station WJXT broadcasted a story on "Baby Jane Doe" last year.
Investigators say they were eventually able to identify Kenyatta after using DNA testing and making a family connection.
