This is in my neck of the woods...hope the media doesn't make this crazy bitch into the next Casey Anthony

Police say they have every reason to believe that the remains of a small child found in Southeast Austin are those of two-year-old Colton Turner. Cedar Park police reported Colton as missing and in danger Thursday.

Police say at around 2:05 p.m. they located a body off Felter and Burleson Road. Officers say the body was in a small grave.

Colton's mother, Meagan Work, is in the Williamson County Jail. Police say she is the person of interest in this case but did say in a press conference that there may be other persons of interest. Police say they are interviewing people at this time.

Cedar Park police say on Wednesday someone sent them photos of Colton with bruises. Officers located Work and questioned her at length on Thursday. Police say Work told them she last saw her son in July and gave multiple stories that didn't check out as to what happened between then and now.

The Austin Police Department has taken the lead on the investigation. APD Chief Art Acevedo said at a press conference this afternoon, “I can tell you anyone that places a child in a small, shallow grave, the fact you can do that doesn't speak well of you as a human being and I cringe at the thought of the life he had while living.”

Officers will rely on the Medical Examiner's Office for a positive identification.

Meagan Rena Work was born May 11, 1994. Civil Court records show her parents Sydney and Jennifer filed for divorce in November 2008 when she was 12. The record also shows the couple could not pay court costs. It’s not clear what the custody arrangement was.

More recently, a senior Cedar Park Police official reportedly said Meagan Work has been the subject of abuse complaints made to the State Department of Child and Family Protective Services. Those records are not releasable due to privacy laws.

In June of 2012, Williamson County criminal court records show Work was charged with animal abuse and later pleaded guilty after a horse tied to a tree at her boyfriend’s mother’s house in Leander became tangled in its lead rope. A police report contends the animal named Rasha suffocated.

In May of 2013, Work was charged with assault with bodily injury after an early morning bar fight involving another woman at a Cedar Park night club. Police sources also indicate she has been the victim of assault at least once. Meagan is currently waiting a hearing on a misdemeanor charge filed in January of Possession / Delivery of Drug Paraphernalia.

Meagan’s reported boyfriend is 29 year-old Michael Brant Turner. Friends of the family tell KXAN he knew Colton most of his life and was considered a father figure. KXAN found he has a lengthy criminal history in Williamson County dating back to 2002 – That history includes animal cruelty, theft, assault, public intoxication, burglary of a habitation and bail jumping.

Colton’s biological father is Brandon Lee Pelfrey. He’s 22. There’s no record of his being married to Work in Williamson County civil courts. A friend of Pelfrey’s thought told KXAN Pelfrey won partial custody of Colton but did not know about it since he missed the court date. This week, it’s reported he was one of the people asking police for help finding the boy.

Friends also say was not around much after Colton was born. In 2011, when Pelfrey was 18, he was sentenced to four years in prison after pleading guilty to assaulting a mentally disabled teen with two other men. Later this year, he’s due back in court for a public intoxication charge.
