Denise Trofa, the sister of Donna Tucker, advised officers that she has not heard from her sister since June 7th.

Hamden Police conducted a search of Tucker’s residence in an attempt to locate her. Officers located her personal belongings. A preliminary search was conducted in a nearby wooded area. The search for Tucker is continuing this morning.

Donna Tucker is described as a white female, 60 years of age, 5’4”, 110lbs., hazel-colored eyes and “reddish/brown hair.”

Anyone with information is asked to contact the Hamden Police Department at (203) 230-4000.

Uh oh.

Son facing murder charge in connection with missing Hamden woman
The son of a woman reported missing has been charged with her murder, police said late Saturday.
Donna Tucker’s 34-year-old son, Kyle Tucker, of the same address, was arrested Saturday and charged with murder and tampering with physical evidence.

He was held in lieu of a $5 million bail at the Hamden Police Department, Wydra said.
Police are expected to hold a press conference on Sunday at noon at the police department to provide an update on the investigation.
 
OT: The search function is challenging my patience

Through investigation, police said they believe they have found the remains of Ms. Tucker in the yard of her 128 Broadway Street home in Hamden.

Hamden Chief of Police Thomas Wydra said they are awaiting positive identification but said there was more than enough evidence to charge Tucker.
PD: Missing Hamden mother’s remains found in yard, son arrested

ID to be confirmed
 
From the presser:

Kyle Tucker‘s court date is tomorrow. He confessed to murdering his mother. COD (as per his confession): Blunt force trauma to the head. No weapon recovered.

Questioned about a neighbor reporting a bonfire the other day, PD wants to be careful answering it because it‘s an ongoing investigation. PD confirmed they recovered her remains in the yard.

Kyle Tucker has no arrest history. He previously displayed mental illness that was reported to PD but none of that caused them to believe that he would do harm to his own mother. Over the years there have been large bonfires in the backyard to the degree that the fire department had to respond to extinguish

Man says he beat mother, burned her body in fire pit
Police records released Monday during the Meriden Superior Court arraignment of 34-year-old Kyle Tucker said Tucker told police he bashed his mother’s head with a baseball bat and then burned her body in a fire pit for eight hours.
Court records said he described scrubbing the kitchen clean with chemicals and repainting a wall after he couldn’t wash off his mother’s blood. In a concession, Tucker said, “God got into my body,” before he struck his mother.
 
US-man bashes mother's head with baseball-bat, burns body in backyard
Kyle Tucker called it "self-defense", claiming his mother Donna had tried to poison him over 20 times
In the meantime, police also spoke to Kyle's brother Morgan in Texas, who reported seeing bizarre tweets from his brother's account.

In one, Kyle had written: "i don't mind admitting it, Donna's favorite son was Ryan & her second favorite Mason. Ryan's an awesome dude & Mason's a big time kid, so at least they're worthy competitors for our moma's love."
 
A judge on Monday ordered 34-year-old Kyle Tucker to a mental health facility for a 60-day program aimed at restoring him to competency after a psychiatrist testified that Tucker has "a psychiatric illness that has resulted in delusional beliefs."

The judge has ruled that Tucker is not mentally competent to stand trial.

Judge: man charged with killing mother incompetent for trial
 
Very tragic, he clearly wasn't well mentally. His Twitter is quite a read. He thought his mother would reincarnate.

RIP Donna.
