WORCESTER — Christina Castro, 27, was allowed to see her 3-year-old son one last time before the deceased child’s wake and funeral on Sunday, reports The Worcester Telegram & Gazette*. She did not attend the wake or funeral.

Castro, of Wall Street Court, Worcester, is being held on $ 50,000 bail on charges of motor vehicle homicide and reckless endangerment of a child.

According to the Telegram & Gazette, Castro’s lawyer filed a motion on Friday asking for her to be allowed to leave MCI Framingham to attend a private viewing from 4 to 5 p.m. Sunday at Rock of Salvation Pentecostal Church in Worcester before Jayden’s wake, which started at 6 p.m.

According to the Telegram & Gazette, District Court Judge David P. Despotopoulos granted the motion Friday, but it was impounded until Monday.
