Aaron Jones, 13 had been missing for months and his father Paul Jones hadn’t reported him missing. Worried that the worst had happened, his family went looking, passing out fliers starting this past Monday. After speaking to people, where he was last seen, they searched a desert area and found the body.
Covered in plastic material, the body was severely decomposed and hidden under small boulders.
The father claims that he is not responsible, despite having not reported him missing – and being arrested on April 1th for abusing another one of his children.
The police said there had been custody issues, and that the rest of the family didn’t know he was missing since December.
The father is currently the main suspect in the killing of the boy.
