Vania Sisk, the mother of missing Durham boy Jadon Higganbothan, didn't show up for her court date in Durham Tuesday morning.

Sisk was supposed to face a Durham County judge on an unrelated misdemeanor marijuana charge. After everyone was called Tuesday morning, the judge said those that didn't appear would be under arrest.

Meanwhile Sick's 6-year-old son and 28-year-old Antoinetta McCoy remain missing.

According to search warrants obtained from the Teller County Sheriff's Office in Colorado by NBC-17, a confidential informant told Durham police that Jadon and McKoy were killed.

The informant said on October 2010, Peter Moses became angry at the boy, grabbed a gun and "began pacing angrily around the house." According to the warrants, Moses called Jadon to the basement and then "heard loud music and the sound of a gunshot." The informant went on to say that they saw Moses wrap Jadon's body in plastic and placed into a suitcase in the attic of the home on Pear Tree Lane. The informant said the boy's body was then removed after it began to emit odor.

According to the 30-page document, the same informant then said in early February Antoinetta McKoy got into an argument with Peter Moses over missing keys. McKoy attempted to leave the home but was stopped by two other women living in that home. The informant told investigators Peter Moses gave Vania Sisk and another woman a .22 caliber gun and a 9mm handgun, respectively, and told the women to make sure McKoy stayed in place. The informant said Moses returned later and told Sisk to shoot McKoy with the 9mm handgun, which according to the informant, she did. The warrants say McKoy's body was then removed from the home and buried.

Officials say Moses is believed to be part of a religious cult called the "Black Hebrews."

Authorities believe Moses, Sisk and other members of the group were temporarily living in Colorado.

Sisk was brought back to Durham on March 2 to be questioned about her son's disappearance. She told investigators she left him with an acquaintance in Durham late last month.

On February 18, Durham police found Moses hiding in a cabinet at the couple's home on Pear Tree Lane in Durham and arrested him on outstanding warrants. He later posted a $1500 bond and was released.
