Date of Discovery: Located between 1921 - 1951
Cause of Death: Exploded Dynamite
Victim was a child

Circumstances: Two children found sticks of dynamite near a dam in Los Angeles County, and began to play with them. The sticks exploded in their hands, killing them instantly. There is no way possible to get a reconstruction of the male child due to the state of his body at the time of discovery. There are no names or dates available, and this case is unsolved by the FBI. The photographer who took these photos had a career in forensic photography between 1921 and 1951, so these deaths occured in that time frame.
