6-year-old boy who disappeared from him mobile home park in March
2007.

convicted. He is charged with kidnapping, child molestation and
murder in Brunswick, a coastal city 60 miles south of Savannah.
Witnesses expected to testify against Edenfield include his wife,
who police say watched her husband and adult son take turns raping
Christopher Michael Barrios before killing him.
Peggy Edenfield and the couple's 34-year-old son, George
Edenfield, who is a convicted child molester, will be tried later.
Police say George Edenfield confessed that he choked Christopher
because the devil told him to kill the boy.
