Son of Connecticut couple who went missing since August has been charged with the death of his parents. 27 year old Kyle Navin was charged with two counts of murder and two counts of murder with special circumstances by the Connecticut State Police, according to CNN.
Jeffrey and Jeanette Navin was last seen on August 4, days after they attended and lost an appeal to a multimillion-dollar foreclosure case for the trash removal and recycling company they possessed in Easton. Last Friday, the couple's bodies were found in a vacant lot according to a statement from the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner.
NYTimes reported that Jennifer Valiante, the son's girlfriend was also charged for conspiring to commit murder and deterring prosecution. At present, Navin has a bond for $2.5 million and Valiante for $2 million. Attorneys of both refused to give comment about the case.
According to ABC News, an affidavit from a state police major investigator showed cell phone records of Navin and his girlfriend with messages saying that Kyle was planning to "solve every single problem and give us a wealthy amazing life" and "wipe out the infection and get $ for life."
The parents-son relationship was a distressed one. The parents even disclosed their worry of their son's heroin addiction to friends and planned to sell their company cutting their son out of the will.
Basing on the affidavit, state child welfare also shared that the father Jeffrey Navin had a "history of being emotionally and verbally abusive towards his son Kyle."
Officers found two firearms and rounds of ammunition, hypodermic needles, empty prescription bottles of Oxycodone and bottles with Xanax, and glassine bags during the investigation in Kyle's house.
Also recovered from the home was a receipt from Home Depot issued on August 5 showing that he purchased "germicidal bleach, hair/grease drain opener, 'Goo Gone' stain remover and contractor cleanup bags."
Investigators explained in the affidavit that they found DNA evidence in Kyle's truck and found that there were inconsistencies with his whereabouts on the day his parents went missing.
