In late spring 2014, 27-year-old Alicia Fox of Detroit vanished along with her two young children, 6-year-old daughter Kaylah Hunter and 8-month-old son Kristian Justice. Family alarm grew when Alicia missed her daughter’s kindergarten graduation; her decomposing body was later found in a vacant house and an autopsy determined she had been shot twice in the head.

Investigators identified Alicia’s estranged husband and father of the infant, Erin Justice, as a suspect after evidence of a violent crime, including blood spatter, was found at the family home. Justice fled to Atlanta and was apprehended; another man, Timothy Jones, was arrested and later admitted helping move Alicia’s body, saying the children were alive the last time he saw them. Relatives told investigators Alicia may have been planning to leave Justice.

Erin Justice was charged with first-degree murder, underwent competency evaluation, and accepted a plea to second-degree murder, receiving 45 to 80 years; Timothy Jones pleaded guilty to being an accessory after the fact and was sentenced. The whereabouts of Kaylah and Kristian remain unknown. Does anyone have information about Kaylah or Kristian’s disappearance?
