Oklahoma Murder: 4 People Found Dead With 2 Missing Teens, Convicted Rapist Have Been Identified
The ongoing murder investigation into the seven bodies found in an Oklahoma ranch has some updates after several victims have been identified.
A woman said Tuesday that her daughter and three grandchildren were among the seven individuals found dead during a search for two missing teens and a convicted sex offender.
On Monday, authorities said seven bodies were discovered on the Henryetta property of 39-year-old convicted rapist Jesse McFadden.
The Oklahoma State of Bureau Investigations (OSBI) said Monday that the bodies of two missing girls, namely Ivy Webster, 14, and Brittany Brewer, 15, who were last seen with McFadden, were among those found.
The gruesome discovery was made after the two teenagers went missing in the area on Sunday, and the following morning, McFadden failed to show up in a court trial on charges of one count of soliciting sexual conduct with a minor and one count of possession of child pornography.
According to The Independent, relatives identified the other victims on Tuesday as McFadden's wife, Holly Guess, 35; and her children Tiffany Dore Guess, 13; Michael James Mayo, 15; and Rylee Elizabeth Allen, 17. McFadden was also found dead on the ranch.
The two missing teens previously had a sleepover with Tiffany, McFadden's stepdaughter. However, the girls suddenly went missing. Brittany's mother, Malaina Schabell, told NewsNation she tried calling her daughter but was not answering.
"She told me she'd call me later and I never heard anything from her which wasn't normal," said the grieving mother as she cried. "I knew something was wrong 'cause she wasn't answering, I tried to call. I got online on her Facebook and I tried calling her, video calling her, and I messaged her and she wouldn't respond, and it showed she was online, but she wouldn't respond."
Slain Sex Offender's Mother-in-Law Speaks Out About Oklahoma Murders
With the identification of the four other victims, the slayings have stunned the local community in Henryetta, Oklahoma.
Holly Guess' mother, Janette Mayo, confirmed that her daughter and three grandchildren were among the seven bodies found in that Oklahoma ranch. She noted that her son-in-law had been controlling, and his behavior concerned her.
The grieving mother and grandmother told the Associated Press that Jesse McFadden "was very standoffish, generally very quiet, but he kept my daughter and the kids basically under lock and key."
She added that McFadden had "to know where they were at all times, which sent red flags up." Mayo noted that the sheriff told her that the victims were discovered shot to death in various locations around the McFadden ranch.
Ivy Webster's father, Justin Webster, confirmed that his daughter also suffered gunshot wounds. Like Mayo, Webster also described McFadden as "weird" and "controlling."
Slain Sex Offender Kept His Past a Secret to His Wife
Jesse McFadden had spent 16 years in prison for rape. He was also accused of "sexting" an underage girl on a contraband phone while still in jail in 2017.
However, according to the New York Post, it seemed that his family did not know he was a convicted rapist. Janette Mayo told AP: "He lied to my daughter, and he convinced her it was all just a huge mistake."
The elderly mother and grandmother said her family did not know about his criminal history until a few months ago.
