Jenelle Evans’ Son Jace Removed from Her Care After Violent Altercation

Jenelle’s 911 Call Reveals Shocking Details

In a frantic 911 call obtained by the outlet, Jenelle detailed the tense moments, sharing that Jace had become angry, began damaging her property, and ultimately fled from the house. “He smashed his door, my door, a closet door,” Jenelle said during the call, adding that this wasn’t Jace’s first attempt to run away that weekend. She described the second disappearance as part of a “nasty fight” between mother and son, which led her to call the police twice — first on Saturday night and again on Sunday morning.

The reality star noted that Jace’s alleged behavior could be linked to recent restrictions she imposed, including taking away his pocket knife, which she claimed had led to his anger. During the call, Jenelle told the dispatcher that she suspected Jace might be smoking marijuana and drinking, stating, “He’s mad that I took [the pocketknife] away.”

Jace Located but Won’t Return to Jenelle’s Home

According to sources close to the situation, authorities managed to locate Jace shortly after his second disappearance. Following this, he was removed from Jenelle’s home and is now reportedly staying with CPS, who stepped in to review the situation. A local source indicated that Child Protective Services has since visited Jenelle’s home to interview her two younger children, Kaiser and Ensley, to better understand the family dynamics.

This marks a significant setback for Jenelle, who only regained custody of Jace earlier this year after he was in the care of her mother, Barbara Evans, for most of his life. Since then, the family has faced multiple challenges, including incidents of Jace running away from their North Carolina home prior to their recent move to Las Vegas.

Ongoing Family Troubles and Legal Matters

Jenelle’s decision to bring Jace under her roof again came as part of her separation from David Eason. In an effort to start anew, she relocated her family to Las Vegas with her two younger children and her boyfriend, August Keen. However, this fresh start appears to be plagued by old tensions, and questions about her ability to maintain a stable environment for her children have resurfaced.

Adding to the complexities, Jenelle’s relationship with August has also faced scrutiny. According to *The Ashley*, 911 communication records reveal that August previously made claims about Jenelle’s drinking and substance use, although he later retracted those statements. During her recent 911 call, Jenelle reassured authorities that she was sober and fully in control, despite the high-stress situation with Jace.

Past Custody and Behavioral Issues

Jace’s recent behavior isn’t an isolated incident. His past includes several instances of running away, with one incident involving his disappearance from school. In that case, he was found at a nearby gas station after being missing for hours. In September 2023, Jace was reportedly involved in an altercation with David Eason, Jenelle’s estranged husband, which led to an open criminal case against Eason.

This weekend’s incident, however, may signal a turning point. While Jace had been back with his mother since February, the latest episode has placed their fragile family dynamic under intense scrutiny, especially as CPS remains involved in evaluating the situation for Jace, Kaiser, and Ensley.

Jenelle’s Response Remains Vague

Though Jenelle hasn’t publicly acknowledged Jace’s removal, she responded vaguely to a fan’s recent question on Facebook about her custody of her children, stating simply, “Of course I do.” The response left fans speculating about the status of her custody and her plans moving forward as her family’s situation continues to unfold.

Despite the setbacks, Jenelle’s focus remains on proving her ability to care for her children. Whether or not Jace will return to her home, however, remains uncertain as CPS assesses the next steps in the ongoing case.
