Dakota Saldivar
Dakota Saldivar and Michael Wilson, both 17, are the main suspects of the murder of their motherDawn Liebig, 46, who was reported missing from her Pahrump home on Monday.
The two were said to have stabbed and bludgeoned the woman to death and face charges of open murder, conspiracy to commit murder and domestic battery with a deadly weapon.
Police were alerted when an Idaho man called asking for the authorities to check on the woman claiming that he did not trust the teenagers with her.

When detectives interviewed the two boys, they discovered that both had inconsistent stories and finally they confessed that they stabbed Liebig before burying her body in a 2-foot-deep grave.
One of the teenagers, Wilson, revealed that he was adopted by Liebig 5 years ago
Liebig’s last Facebook post was on the 19th of July and her profile features a picture of 4 teenage boys. “Im a mom that hopes she did okay,” the profile reads. “I want my boys to become the men I hope for. I live for them.”
Wilson stabbed her in the neck while Saldivar bludgeoned her in the head at least 20 times. Liebig cried for help not even knowing who was attacking her.
Sgt. Adam Tippetts of the Nevada police force said “Further interviews were conducted and both juveniles finally confessed that a few hours prior to the murder, they had a fight with Liebig and were tired of her parenting style and demands on them,”
Tippetts added, “They stated they waited until she fell asleep then attacked her. The juveniles recounted a graphic stabbing and bludgeoning. They stated that this attack lasted for approximately half an hour while Liebig fought for her life.”
