A Florida mother who was reported missing Saturday after vanishing six weeks ago was found dead in Georgia on Monday — and her husband is being questioned in connection with her death, officials said.

Casei Jones, 32, and her four kids – Cameron Bowers, 10; Preston Bowers, 5; Mercalli Jones, 2; and Aiyana Jones, 1 – were reported missing after their loved ones grew increasingly concerned about their whereabouts. The five were last seen in early August in Ocala, Fla., where the family lives.

Detectives on Monday were continuing to search for the children, the Marion County Sheriff's Office said.
