Jesse Wilson's adoptive mother has been arrested in connection to the 10-year-old's death.

A massive search effort was launched in July 2016 after the 10-year-old boy was reported missing from his family's Buckeye home.

Nearly two years after disappearing, his remains were found in the Buckeye area, but no arrests were made.

"While this is not the outcome for which any of us had hoped, we want to stress that this is not the end of our investigation," Buckeye police said at the time.

On Tuesday, police announced they arrested Crystal Wilson, who was taken into custody at her home in Georgia.
