Memphis Remains May Be Skelton Boys, Dad Charged

0:00On April 25th, police in Memphis, Tennessee found the remains of three young kids estimated between three and seven years old in a wooded spot, earlier this month. Now, they're testing DNA and dental records to check if these could be the three skeleton brothers for Michigan, nine-year-old Andrew, seven-year-old. Alexander and five-year-old Tanner, who vanished from their dad's house on Thanksgiving day, 2010. The boy's father, John Skeleton, 54 years old, just got hit with murder charges on all three counts. This came right before he was set to walk free after serving 15 years for unlawful imprisonment since he never brought the kids back to there. Mom after that holiday visit, the mom, Tanya Zubers, came out saying she doesn't think these are her sons, but she's holding out for the official results. She's spoken how no family should lose kids like this and prayed for closure for whoever these remains belonged to, while her own grief drags on. Michigan state police are helping with the records, but their lieutenant says the timeline

1:01doesn't line up. The remains live too old for the brothers. Still, they're ruling it out for sure. Skeleton's wild story? He claims he handed the boys to some underground group to shield them from their mother, but cops found zero proof. Authorities always figured Skeleton did it, and with bodies missing till now, tests like these keep the cold case flickering. His next court dates August 24th, as this 15-year saga pushes toward whatever truth finally drops.
