ORLANDO, Fla. _ An interrogation video of the Marion County, Fla., man accused of killing his wife and four kids, 38-year-old Michael Wayne Jones Jr., shed new light onto possible motives in which he explained his wife was constantly "nagging, poking and prodding" him.
Jones is suspected of killing Casei Jones, 32 with a baseball bat and her four children: Cameron Bowers, 10, Preston Bowers, 5, Mercalli Jones, 2, and Aiyana Jones in their Summerfield home last summer, according to a report by WJAX.
Jones was the father of two of the children.
After a car accident in September, Jones was found transporting Casei's body in the back of a van while in Georgia. Jones then led authorities to the location of the buried children's bodies on the side of a highway.
The Marion County Sheriff's Office released a missing persons alert for Casei Jones and the four children after family members in September contacted officials to say they had not been heard from in six weeks and that they feared for their well being.
Initially arrested in Georgia investigators with the Georgia Bureau of Investigators questioned him and found there had been marital issues and money problems between Casei and Jones and that she was constantly nagging him with a bombardment of calls and texts calling him a terrible person.
Jones faces multiple charges of murder in Marion County.
"The strain of it all, I guess it just caught up with me," Michael Jones told detectives. "It was just building up, building up, building up. Before I knew it, it was too much."
