A husband and wife are in custody in connection to the death of a young girl whose remains were found in a Delaware softball field more than a year ago. 

Kristie Haas, 28, and Brandon Haas, 38, both formerly of Smyrna, Delaware, were both arrested in connection to the death of 3-year-old Emma Cole. 

In September 2019, the remains of a child were discovered in the Little Lass softball field in Smyrna, Delaware. Investigators later identified the child as Cole. After more than a year of investigating, police identified Kristie Haas and Brandon Haas as persons of interest in the girl’s death. 

Police have not yet revealed a cause of death, what the couple will be charged with or the couple’s relation to the child.
