A teenager accused of killing and burying his mother is definitely a …

DEBARY, Fla. – A 15-year-old boy from DeBary is one of the "top three sociopaths" of the Volusia County Sheriff, Mike Chitwood, said he had already met him.

The boy, Gregory Ramos, confessed to murdering his mother, Gail Cleavenger, 46, and then buried her body, according to Chitwood. But it's more than the act itself that has brought Chitwood to call the teenager a "soulless individual".

"Observing how cold, insensitive and calculating it was, was probably the most shocking thing for all of us," Chitwood said. "No sign of remorse whatsoever."

Ramos was a police explorer from the Sheriff's Office, a program in which young people work voluntarily with MPs, Chitwood said. He added that the boy was also studying criminal justice and crime scene investigations at the High School University of Orange City. Chitwood said the boy had told MPs that he wanted to become a homicide detective.

Authorities were first alerted to a crime when Ramos called 911 on Friday after returning from school. He claimed to have arrived home to find his burgled house and his missing mother with her car on the move.

This phone call is something that Ramos would later call "award-winning" because of his "performance," according to Chitwood.

When the members arrived, they began to realize that everything was fine, Chitwood said. He added that Ramos had scratches in his face, linked to self-defense injuries, and that the scene seemed suspicious.

After gathering evidence and questioning Ramos' two friends, 17-year-old Dylan Ceglarek and Brian Porras, the deputies clashed. Chitwood said Ceglarek and Porras had confessed to helping Ramos organize the burglary scene and burying his mother's body. They have both been accused of complicity in first degree murder.

MPs said Ramos was initially insensitive to his friends' confessions, asking Sgt. A J. Pagliari, who interviewed him, if it meant that his friends had killed his mother. After another interrogation, Pagliari stated that the suspect had confessed.

"I was not very moved about it," Pagliari said. "He used swear words and said:" I'm going to tell you what happened. "Very cold, calculated and very proud of what he did."

Chitwood said Ramos had attempted to strangle his mother until death around midnight on Friday, after arguing over a "D" that he had received. at school. Believing that she had been killed, Ramos went out to retrieve a wheelbarrow, realizing that she was still alive on her return, according to Chitwood.

Ramos then spent 30 minutes strangling his mother, killing her this time, Chitwood said. He added that Ramos then dragged his mother's body to his car and called Ceglarek and Porras to help him bury him. Porras first hung up on the phone, while Ceglarek did not answer his phone, but both men ended up answering Ramos' calls and agreed to help. him, according to Chitwood.

Authorities said the three boys formed a very united group of friends. Chitwood compared them to the shooters at the Columbine High School massacre in 1999. The three MPs said they were working together to bury Cleavenger's body in a drugstore and then staging the crime scene, including hiding "stolen" electronic devices.

The focus was chosen because Ramos thought the soil was "malleable," according to Chitwood. Pagliari said that when the investigators returned to the scene with Ramos, he admitted to having used his knowledge in crime scene analysis at the school to conceal the scene, which was pieced together and kept intact.

"He said," I really did a good job of putting everything on the stage, "Pagliari said.

Ramos told the authorities that he had killed his mother as part of a "preemptive strike", thinking that she would kill him one day, added Pagliari. He added that MPs had found no evidence of an abusive relationship between the two.

Chitwood recommends that Ramos be tried in adulthood. Ramos, Ceglarek and Porras must all appear in court on Sunday.
