The five children were not with Jones when deputies detained Jones.<\/p>\n<p>The children\u2019s mother reported Jones and the five children missing to the Sheriff\u2019s Department at 6:11 p.m. on Wednesday, September 3, McCarty said.<\/p>\n<p>Deputies entered the five children and Jones as missing persons on the National Crime Information Center computer database. The five children lived at a home near Lexington with Jones, who is the children\u2019s primary legal custodian.<\/p>\n<p>The mother of the five children told Sheriff\u2019s Department deputies that she had been unable to contact Jones, McCarty said. The mother also told deputies that there had been other occasions when she had been unable to contact Jones. Neighbors told deputies that Jones said he was moving with his children from his home near Lexington to another state.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #212121;\">According to reports from the state Department of Social Services, <a title=\"KTLA Report on Five Missing Children\" href=\"http:\/\/ktla.com\/2014\/09\/11\/dad-accused-of-killing-his-5-children-had-history-with-social-services-in-south-carolina\/\">KTLA-TV<\/a> reported that case workers had expressed concerns about the children in the past, as early as 2011, but the most recurring complaint was that the Jones\u2019 house was a mess.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #212121;\">According to KTLA, the first DSS visit came in September 2011, a report says, when a caseworker visited the home because of allegations that the kids \u2014 at the time, only three \u2014 were dirty and not attending school. The mother, who was pregnant, said the children were 3, 4 and 5 and too young to start school but that when they were of age, they would be home-schooled, the report says.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color:

says.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SOUTH CAROLINA \u00a0&#8211; Law enforcement officials said charges are pending against a 32-year-old Lexington, South Carolina man in
