John Skelton is the father of three brothers who went missing in Lenawee County in 2010 and he is charged with their murder. Andrew, Alexander and Tanner Skelton were 9, 7 and 5 when they were last known to be alive. The brothers spent Thanksgiving 2010 with their father, John Skelton, at his home in Morenci Michigan. Their mother, Tanya Zuvers, was supposed to pick them up from her ex-husband the next day. However, she stopped hearing from John. Zuvers went to his home to find that John nor the boys were there because John was at a hospital after he broke his ankle. John allegedly told hospital workers that he injured his ankle while trying to commit suicide. John told police that he gave them to an underground group that would keep them safe. Search parties looked for the boys, but they haven't been found, and John hasn't told anyone where they actually are or if they are even still alive. John was later arrested, charged, and convicted of three counts of unlawful imprisonment. He served a 10-year sentence for the unlawful imprisonment charges and completed his sentence in November 2025. Lenawee County Probate Court declared the brothers legally dead. In Michigan, a person is typically considered to be dead after they have been missing for five years.
