Two teenage kids bodies found buried on their own back yard


The bodies of Mary Crocker and Elwyn Crocker Jr. were discovered buried on their own back yard after police got a tip from a 911 caller saying that Mary had not been seen since October of this year and were worried for their well being.

Elwyn Crocker had been missing since November, 2016. Neither of the two were reported missing to the police. Effingham County police arrested the children's stepmother, Candice Crocker and the children's father Elwyn Crocker (Sr.). In addition, Candice's mother, Kim Wright, and her boyfriend, Roy Anthony Prater were arrested. All face charges including concealing the death of another and cruelty to children in the first degree.

Mary was only 14 years old, and Elwyn Jr. was 14 when he went missing back in 2016.

Crocker Sr. had recently been working at Walmart dressed as a Santa Claus. This is an ongoing case.
