Upon hearing from his mother that he was to spend the upcoming weekend in his father’s custody, ten-year-old Nakota Kelly told her, “My father is going to kill me.” Due to a very specific custody agreement, his mom had no choice but to take him on Friday to spend the weekend with his father, Anthony Dibiah. On Saturday evening, Anthony called a cousin in Texas, screaming, “I killed my son!” In Anthony’s Indianapolis apartment the next day, police discovered a crime scene straight out of a horror movie. Several hours later, Anthony, a convicted criminal who was in the United States illegally, was arrested by the Missouri State Highway Patrol. 
This is a story of a boy failed by DCS and the family court system, and a mother and teenage sister left devastated.
This is the horrific story of Nakota Kelly.
A GoFundMe campaign was set up to assist Nakota’s mom, Hayley, with burial expenses if and when his remains are found. You can donate to the campaign here: https://www.gofundme.com/f/nakota-kelly-memorial-fund
