was found on Deer Island in Boston Harbor last week....
The child was found in a garbage bag on the western shore of the 185-acre peninsula...
Well, KTLA, which is it? It can't be both an island and a peninsula.
My research indicates island is correct.
I'm very familiar with Boston Harbor.It has many small islands,inlets and little spits of land,etc.KTLA didn't really do a bad job describing it.
Historically it was an Island. The gut separating it from the mainland was filled in to make it a peninsular. Your research should have found that right away.
