Police say Jackson tried to cover up the crime scene by washing the boy's clothes and the carpet of his bedroom where the abuse occurred.

Jackson told police that she found the child unresponsive on his bedroom floor on November 28 and moved him to the bathtub. Police did not discover the body until November 30, when Jackson's father contacted them. Jackson told police that she believed the child was just faking it, and that is why she did not contact them.

Anson Stover was not the only child living in the apartment. Jackson was also caring for five other children.

Police haven't said where the other children are staying now.
