WASHINGTON COUNTY, Ind. —

The trial for a mother accused of killing her son, who was found inside a suitcase in southern Indiana, has been pushed back.

Dejaune Anderson was set to stand trial on Oct. 7.

This came after a judge ruled she was deemed competent to stand trial in the death of her 5-year-old son, Cairo Jordan.

He was found dead in a suitcase in Washington County, Indiana, in April 2022.

Now, her trial has been pushed back until next year.

Her new trial date is set for Jan. 6, 2026.

A second woman, Dawn Coleman , pleaded guilty to her role in Cairo's death. She is serving a 25-year prison sentence.
