More than four years after the body of 18-month-old James Chairez was found beneath a mobile home on the South Side, his mother has accepted a plea deal in the case, avoiding a trial that the child’s family had long hoped would bring answers.

More than three years after the remains of 18-month old James Chairez were found, a trial date has yet to be set for her mother, who is charged in the case.

The remains of baby James Chairez were released to his family Tuesday, nearly four months after his remains were found.

The family of baby James Chairez protested outside the Bexar County Courthouse Wednesday over the possibility that the baby’s mother, D’Lanny Chairez could be released from jail.
