WICHITA, Kan. (AP) A woman who led an investigator to the decomposing remains of her 5-year-old stepson three months after reporting him missing was found dead early Friday in a Wichita home with three suicide notes and a rifle at her feet, police said.
Officer Charley Davidson said during a press briefing that officers responded around 1:40 a.m. after Jonathan Hernandez called to report finding his former girlfriend, Emily Glass, dead of a gunshot wound at his Wichita home.
Hernandez said in a statement that Glass killed herself. Davidson said the official cause of death will be determined by the coroners office. He said he didnt know whether Glass was living at the home or who owned the rifle. Davidson did not say to whom the three suicide notes were addressed.
Glass, 27, reported Hernandez son, Lucas, missing on Feb. 17. She told police she last saw Lucas playing in his bedroom before she took a shower and fell asleep. Glass led a private investigator to Lucas body on May 24.
