The decomposing body of the baby’s mother, Raquel Sabean, was reportedly found in the trunk of a car in Tijuana on May 31.
Police investigated after locals complained of a bad smell.
Mexican and American police are now searching for Tyler Adams, who is wanted for questioning regarding Raquel’s disappearance.
Raquel was a US Navy veteran and lived across the border from Tijuana in San Diego.
The couple brought baby Valentina across the border to Tijuana on April 17, NBC San Diego reported.
Adams was detained in Tecate, Mexico on June 15 after an Amber Alert was issued for Valentina, according to the FBI.
Baby Valentina was found by authorities in Playas de Rosarito and remains in protective custody in Mexico, according to the California State Attorney General’s Office.
Authorities said Adams was uncooperative during questioning in Mexico and eventually left the country.

The FBI says he was allowed to cross back into the US using the alias Aaron Bain.
He is reportedly known to use multiple fake and stolen identities, San Diego Fox affiliate KSWB reported, and is also wanted in Hawaii.
In May of 2019, Adams left the Oahu Community Correctional Center on a work furlough and never returned, according to officials in Hawaii.
A warrant was issued for Adams in Hawaii in September 2020.
The FBI describes Adams as 5 feet, 9 inches tall and weighing 175 pounds with brown hair.
He was last seen wearing a yellow, short-sleeved button-up shirt, tan pants, and black running shoes. He could have swelling under his eyes.
Law enforcement in Hawaii described him as a “master of disguise.”
Some of his known aliases are said to be Aaron Lee Bain, Aaron Lee, Aron Lee, Paul Wilson Phipps, Paul Wilson Phillps, and David Smith.
