Wells and his mother, Denise Porter, argued last September over his drinking and drug use inside the home they shared, reports TribLive.
After Porter told Wells to leave the home, he took the ashes of her late mother and father from a memorial in her bedroom and flushed them down the toilet.
Porter also said Wells texted her that he would also flush her ashes down the toilet when she died.
Wells will appear at a preliminary hearing scheduled for May 13.
