Man Indicted For Mother's Murder

{Lexington, Kentucky}...A Fayette County grand jury has indicted 28 year old Mark Adam Cave in the murder of his mother, 54 year old Sharon Howard. The indictment alleges Cave hit Howard in the head and/or neck in June 2011 with an unknown object, causing her death. Relatives had not seen Sharon Howard since June, and she was reported missing in December. Lexington Police found the badly decomposed body in early February in a garbage container. Police have said that, while Cave was in the Fayette County Detention Center on unrelated charges, he admitted killing his mother. In February, Cave pleaded not guilty to murder and tampering with physical evidence. Arraignment is set for April 5th.
