It was unclear how the children, ages 1 to 8, died or where the killings took place.
Earlier Tuesday, the Lexington County Sheriff's Office in South Carolina issued a release saying the children were last seen with their father near their home on Sept. 3. The children's mother, who is divorced from Jones but has joint custody, reported them missing.
Wilcox County Dist. Atty. Michael Jackson told the Associated Press that the children's father was suspected of killing them. Crumpton said Jones was also charged with driving under the influence and drug possession in Mississippi.
According to the Lexington County Sheriff's Office, the father had told neighbors he was moving out of South Carolina with his children.

38 miles due south of Selma, Al.
He had to have known the area, because it is difficult to get to, lots of winding 2 lane country roads, no reason any stranger would end up at that location, it is difficult enough when you know where you going.
In fact, the only way he could have driven from the dump site to Raleigh Miss is on back country roads and a lot of zig zagging.
Looks like he was avoiding the more traveled roads.
