James Soares Arrested for Killing Parents with Grub Hoe, Burying Them in Cesspool

James A. Soares has been charged in Rhode Island for killing his parents with a grub hoe and burying them in a cesspool.

Soares, 24, did not enter a plea when he was arraigned Sunday on two counts of murder in the deaths of his parents: James Sr., 60, and Marian, 53.

Police believe Soares attacked and killed his parents July 9 with a heavy digging tool known as a grub hoe, very similar to a garden hoe. He lives with his parents, who were reported missing on July 15 after they did not show up to a family reunion.

According to the Boston Globe, the grub hoe was found in the cesspool, part of the backyard septic system, along with the bodies.

The bodies were found at least 6 feet below ground, said Major Steven O'Donnell of the Rhode Island State Police. He described the grub hoe as between 12 and 18 inches long, topped with a metal bar that has two sides.

In 1986, James and Marian Soares were arrested on drug possession charges after police raided their house and found cocaine, prescription tranquilizers, marijuana, drug paraphernalia, a .357 Magnum firearm, and $1,350 in cash, the Providence Journal reported.

James Soares Sr. pleaded no contest to felony charges and served a three-year suspended sentence and five years probation.
