Grandmother and Boyfriend Charged with Murder in Kansas Child Custody Battle

In a shocking turn of events, a grandmother and her accomplices are being charged with the murder of two Kansas women amid a child custody battle. The court documents reveal disturbing details, shedding light on the horrific deaths of the victims.

Accusations and Charges

The accused, grandmother Tifany Machel Adams, 54, her boyfriend Tad Bert Cullum, Cole Twombly and Cora Twombly, are facing serious charges including two counts of first-degree murder, two counts of kidnapping, and one count of conspiracy to commit murder. This comes in connection to the deaths of 27-year-old mother Veronica Butler and visitation supervisor Jilian Kelley, a 38-year-old preacher's wife and mother, as they were en route to a court-supervised visit with Butler's two children in Oklahoma.

Investigators believe that the motive behind these heinous crimes was to gain custody of Butler's two children. Butler, who was allowed supervised visitation with her children, was likely to be granted unsupervised visitation in an upcoming court hearing.

Discovery and Arrests

The investigation intensified when the victims' families found evidence near the border between Kansas and Oklahoma, leading to the discovery of the women's bodies in a cow pasture. Subsequent interviews and analysis of electronic devices led to the arrest of the suspects involved in this tragic case.

Incriminating Evidence

The investigation revealed that Adams had searched for "taser pain level" and purchased five tasers just before the two women went missing. Additionally, phone records and witness statements provided crucial evidence, exposing the chilling plot that unfolded.

Allegations and Conspiracies

The daughter of the Twombly couple divulged harrowing details, implicating the suspects and their involvement in the planning and execution of the crimes. The group's affiliation with an anti-government organization added a disturbing layer to the case, raising questions about their motives and ideologies.
