Two Jenkins County residents pled guilty Tuesday to concealing the death of a relative, whose remains were found burned and buried in a shallow grave behind her home near Williams Road and Old Savannah Highway in April, said Jenkins County Sheriff Robert Oglesby. Susan Eleanor Coleman Lovett and Christopher Eugene Lovette (surnames spelled differently) each pled guilty before Jenkins County Superior Court Judge Gates Peed to charges of concealing the death of another and false statements and writings/concealing facts, Oglesby said. The burned remains of Ashley Lovett, 27, were found in a shallow grave in April after investigators began probing into her disappearance.
