Sun Min "Grace" Yoo Chan, an educational counselor from River Edge, was jailed on charges of murder, aggravated assault, and child endangerment Wednesday, May 3, Bergen County Prosecutor Mark Musella said.

Police were called to Chan's home around 7:30 a.m. on March 29, on reports of a child not breathing, Musella said. The unresponsive child was taken to Hackensack University Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead three days later, the prosecutor said.

An investigation found Chan assaulted her son on multiple occasions in the past and, on March 29, ultimately caused his death, Musella's office said.

Chan was arrested Tuesday, May 3 and remanded to the Bergen County jail, pending a court appearance, Musella said.
