Timothy Jones Jr. drove a 700 mile journey from North Carolina to Alabama with all five of his kids. However, his kids were just bodies wrapped in garbage bags stowed in the trunk of his car. He had told his neighbors that he was going to move his kids to another state, but little did they know that he was going to murder them first. He was caught when he drove through a police checkpoint in Mississippi. The police had noticed his strange and slightly violent demeanor. They had found cleaning material and children's clothes but no children in his car. They then checked the trunk and were horrified to see five reeking bodies wrapped crudely is garbage bags. Jones was allegedly in possession of marijuana and a drug called "bath salts", but authorities still have not found the reason why he had killed his own children.
This is a horrid story. To kill your own family, especially your children, and drop them off in some place like they were just trash makes me shudder. This so called father is an insane and inhumane person. My heart goes out to all the people who were connected with this family. I will keep up with this story to find out why the father did this to children. There must be a deeper meaning.

I really hope they mentally evaluate the father to find his motive. This is incredibly heart breaking and I think that police checkpoints are something that should be used more often.

I sort of feel bad for the dad, even though this is a horrible thing, he must have a mental problem and sadly it wasn't caught in time or nothing was done to help this man. It was definitely the wrong thing to do, but there must be some other factor or factors to why he did this.

Im not sure as to why the dad would have acted like this but for the mother and the family forgotten about, they deserve answers and reasoning's as to why it had to have happened this way.
