Pasadena police say the full body of 10-year-old Jonathan Singer was packed in a box that was found in the back of the couple's sports utility vehicle in west Houston.

Officials said the boy had cerebral palsy and weighed about 35-40 pounds.

Father of the boy drove his body to his grandfather's home, something was said to the grandfather who then alerted police!

Prosecutors say Jonathan drowned after his 46-year-old father, Jeffrey Singer, left him alone in a bathtub.

They found him last April but it was just determined to be a homicide last week?

Kind of odd. The article says the father left the boy alone in the bath, but the mother has been charged with murder. Very strange.

That had to be an error that said his body was found last April, Surely they meant last Sunday or something like that? Can anyone clear this up?

Wow, that picture of the mom is scary. But I didn't see the one of the dad (maybe because it was the mobile site I visited?).

Wonder how old the other kids are and their condition.

RIP Jonathan
