KINGSTON, Mo. — The mother of a Missouri farmer charged with tampering with a truck used by two missing Wisconsin brothers says she can't see him being involved in their deaths.
Tomme Feil told The Kansas City Star that she has no idea why her son, Garland Nelson, would have moved the brother's vehicle.
Nelson was charged with tampering with a rental truck used by 35-year-old Nicholas Diemel and his 24-year-old brother, Justin, who were reported missing July 21 and are presumed dead.
Nelson is accused of driving the truck from a farm near Braymer visited by the brothers during a business trip for their cattle operation in Wisconsin. The truck was found abandoned.
Law enforcement officials on Wednesday announced human remains were found on the farm but haven't been identified.
Nelson's mother told the newspaper that she wouldn't know if her son got mixed up in something he shouldn't have. She says she wishes she knew the truth of what happened.
