SYRINGES, porn and dead mice litter the floor of a house of horrors where a
dad and stepmum allegedly killed their seven-year-old son and fed him to the
pigs.
Michael A. Jones, 44, and Heather Jones, 29, have been charged with child
abuse and first-degree murder for killing little Adrian in their Kansas
home.
The couple were arrested after officers found human remains, believed to be
their son’s, at their home when they visited the premises due to reports
Michael had shot Heather.
Police found the remains in a pigsty out back and the house, where the couple
lived with the boy and six girls, filthy with dead mice, cages full of rats,
syringes and pornographic videos
.
Jennifer Hoevers, the landlord who rented the property to the twisted couple,
said she was “shocked and disgusted” after entering the farmhouse this week.
She has set up a page
to raise money for repairs, after the house was ruined with dirty clothes, a “stomach-churning
smell”, fast food wrappers and gone-off food.

The devastated landlady described black mold growing all over the house,
bullet holes in the wall, entire bathrooms ripped apart and a trashed
swimming pool as just part of the destruction.
Hoevers told how she rented the $500,000 residence, which she put her life
savings into, to the family while her husband is away with the military.
She told Fox4: “We had a lot of hopes and dreams for it. We wanted someone
else to enjoy it. We saw they had a lot of kids.
“Having little kids myself, I don’t know how anybody could allow their kids to
live like this.”
Michael Jones has been charged with aggravated burglary and aggravated assault
with a firearm for allegedly shooting his wife on November 25.
Heather Jones’ dad Jeff Coon told Kansas City News his daughter called him on
Thanksgiving and said they had killed the little boy and “fed him to the
pigs”, warning it would be “all over the news”.
Coon hadn’t seen his estranged daughter or the boy for two years, and said she
was “just calm” when explaining what they had done.
He added: “I just don’t understand what that little boy had done to get what
he got. There’s no reason for it.”
Adrian, who was never reported missing, is said to have disappeared late
September.
Six girls, aged between one and 10, who lived in the filthy home have been
taken into protective custody and both parents are held awaiting trial.
