Jayden Spicer is 5 feet, 1 inch tall, with blonde hair, blue eyes, and a slim build. He was last seen wearing blue "Sonic the Hedgehog" pajama pants and a matching shirt. Jayden’s mother, Felicia Gross, too anxious to speak with the media, asks police to share a letter with them instead, begging for help. The search for Jayden includes an extensive search of his home and the area surrounding his home. Kentucky State Police are using aircraft, drones, K-9, and sonar.Friends, neighbors, and even politicians help search. As the search grows, two of Jayden's aunts question some of the information they have been given. Again, police were told Jayden went to bed Tuesday night but was missing Wednesday morning. Chyy Salers and Samantha Bunty say a lot of the info they have been told "doesn't add up." A week into the search, Felicia Gross leads police to the shallow grave where Jayden is buried.Gross says she gave her son some type of sleeping medication that she says caused a fatal medical emergency. Gross is arrested.
