When Georgia authorities pulled over a Florida driver during the weekend, they made a gruesome discovery in the back of the truck — the body of his decomposing wife. Casei Jones and her four children had been missing from their Florida hometown for over a month, and the discovery set off a massive search
The bodies have now been found — though authorities won't say where — and Michael Jones, 38, has been returned to Florida for prosecution. Judge Robert Landt in Marion County, Florida, ordered Jones held without bond Thursday.
Jones has been charged with 2nd degree murder in his wife's death. Authorities suspect he killed all five members of his family at the mobile home where they had been living in Summerfield, Florida, said Kayla Welch, a spokeswoman for the Marion County Sheriff's office. Casei Jones' family reported her and her four children missing Saturday night. Nikki Jones said she hadn't seen or heard from her daughter and grandchildren for nearly six weeks and was concerned for their wellbeing, according to an arrest report.
Sheriff Woods said his deputies put out a blast for authorities across the country to be on the lookout for Michael Jones. Police in Brantley County, Georgia, pulled his truck over Sunday night.
