ANADARKO, Oklahoma (KOCO) — Ivon Adams, the caretaker charged with murdering 4-year-old Athena Brownfield, was booked into the Caddo County Jail Thursday.

Adams was charged with first-degree murder and child neglect. He was booked into the jail at 8:57 p.m. after being released from the Maricopa County Jail in Arizona early Thursday morning.

Prosecutors said his wife, Alysia Adams, told police he beat the four-year-old to death on Christmas night and buried her on an old property in Rush Springs.

State agents found child remains near Rush Springs on Tuesday, but they haven’t confirmed whether the remains are Athena Brownfield’s.
