Maybe this was a thrill kill of some kind. Rape/murder of mother and/or daughter and father was just collateral damage. I've never been to Oklahoma, but my mother lives in a very rural part of New England, and I know some sketchy things happen in those rural areas. In her town there are tons of burglaries, last year two people were beaten to death on their front lawn (still unsolved), and my mother has come home and found evidence that someone had been in her house a couple of times, although nothing was taken. Heck, just a few days ago she found one of her goats decapitated, which I found spooky and strange. And I know on visits during holidays I've taken walks on those lonely dirt roads and gotten strange, creepy vibes from passing vehicles (one time during a walk the same red truck passed me four times - I got so frightened I ran back to my mother's house, cutting through the woods instead of staying on the road). All I know is that I live in New York City, and I would feel safer walking down the street in Harlem or the Bronx at 3am than I would in the middle of the night in my mother's area - and it's not critters I'd be afraid of.
Hoping this family is found safe, but it's not looking likely.
