WESTON, Conn. — The month before his parents disappeared, police say Kyle Navin wrote that he had the “perfect plan” to get “$ for life.”

Then, a few days before they vanished, Navin’s mother confided in a friend that she and her husband planned to cut him out of their will.

Now, the adult son of a trash hauling businessman and a school library aide faces allegations he killed his parents and dumped their bodies in the yard of a vacant home in a well-to-do Connecticut town.

State police said Navin, of Bridgeport, faces two counts of murder and murder with special circumstances in the deaths of his parents, who had been missing since August 4. His girlfriend has also been charged with conspiracy to commit murder and hindering prosecution.

The bodies of Jeffrey and Jeanette Navin, of Easton, were found Thursday outside a vacant home in neighboring Weston.

According to an arrest warrant affidavit for Navin’s girlfriend, Jennifer Valiante, police say Jeanette Navin had been distraught over the situation with her son in the days before she and her husband disappeared.

Jeanette Navin told a longtime acquaintance her relationship with her son had been “very tempestuous” and that she suspected he was abusing drugs, according to the affidavit. She also confided that the couple had purchased a home for their son but he was failing to pay the mortgage and taxes.

Navin then told her friend the couple had planned to cut Kyle, 27, out of their will, sell their trash-hauling business and leave their son without any financial support from the family, according to the affidavit.

Investigators also reviewed text messages sent between Valiante and Kyle Navin before his parents vanished.

In one July exchange, he mentioned a plan to “solve every single problem and give us a wealthy amazing life.”

She replied: “I hear ya. It sounds very good I just don’t know.”

After a few exchanges, he wrote, “Wipe out the infection and get $ for life. It’s perfect plan.”

Navin’s lawyer Eugene Riccio said Saturday morning that he expects his client will be served with arrest papers by Connecticut State Police sometime this weekend. Navin could be arraigned as soon as Monday when the 31-year-old Valiante, who was arrested Friday, is also expected to be arraigned, he said.

On Friday, Assistant U.S. Attorney Tracy Dayton said there was evidence, including the discovery of the remains, that “very strongly suggests” that Navin killed his parents.

Blood found along with a bullet hole on the front passenger seat of his truck tested positive for his mother’s blood, according to the warrant. In his basement, police found blood stains that tested positive for both his blood and his father’s blood.
