Bodies Identified as Purvis and "Dre"

Mother: Bodies Are Missing Milwaukee Boys

MILWAUKEE -- The mother of one of two boys missing for almost a month said Saturday that their bodies had been recovered from a park lagoon near where they disappeared.

Purvis Virginia Parker, 11, and Quadrevion Henning, 12, were last seen on the afternoon of March 19 when they asked Henning's grandfather if they could play basketball at the nearby park.


The bodies were found in the park lagoon on Friday.

"Yes, it's my son," said Angela Virginia, who said she identified Purvis from a photo that police showed her.


She said Quadrevion was identified by his family.
