Specifically, this is in Hardin, Texas, about 20 miles from Houston.  Apparently, there are around 30 bodies in the graves, a large majority, if not all, being children.  They were discovered at the residence of  the property owner (guy’s name is Joe Bankson), his 16 year old and her 19 year old fiance.  The 16 year old left Sunday, and noone saw anything suspicious.   So far, the residents have been “uncooperative” with the investigation.  Bankson and his wife are en route to Georgia at the moment.  The cops were tipped off by an anonymous informant.  The FBI is involved and investigations are currently underway, with a search warrant and a cadaver dog involved.  Rumours that a psychic was the informant are a hoax.

Edits to follow as information updates.  Thoughts?

 

(BTW Jody, you live in Texas, right?  What are your thoughts on this?)

 

Figures.  One of the few times I’m first to report something here on HZ and it’s a hoax.  WHY LORD???

 

Then again, I stopped updating after 30-45 minutes into the thing.  As for the whole incident, I blame the hype.
