In a twisted tale, a Mississippi teen has been arrested for conspiring with two men to lure his father into a trap and kill him, according to the Jackson Clarion Ledger. A police officer, who was involved in a sexual relationship with the teen, was also charged for helping to cover up the crime.
Blake Thompson, 14, allegedly lured his 53 year old father, Kenneth Thompson, into a trap when the concerned dad went looking for the teen, who had been missing for several days. The elder Thompson was lured into a trap and killed by his son and two accomplices, Greg Fortenberry, 26, and LeJerrious Perkins, 17, on Sunday.
The teen then used his sexual partner, 25 year old police officer Jasper Pittman, to help bury the body and burn the father’s pickup truck, according to investigators.
According to family members, the 14 year old was in a relationship with Pittman and had been living at the officer’s home.
The Pike County Sheriff’s Office in Mississippi has arrested Jasper Cortez Pittman, 25; Greg Antonio Fortenberry, 26; LeJerrious Perkins, 17, and a fourth person believed to be the teen son. His name was not released with the list of the other arrests because he is a juvenile.
Family members say the late father had been trying to keep his son out of trouble since the d$$$h of his wife. The father worked full time at a Wal-Mart distribution center prior to his death. Thompson had three other children and was regarded by family members as a hard working man who did everything he could to take care of his family.
