I saw the info. on her past including jail time. I hope MC is innocent for the sake of himself and the adorable little boy. I know appearances can be deceiving, but it appears maybe MW was trying to turn her life around? I can't help but wonder if she really was a paralegal? or if the title is being exagerated. Eighteen months is a long time to be unemployed and dependant on someone else as well. Do you know how long MW had been living/staying with MC? and where has the child been mainly living these last three yrs.?
 
He had a truck. However, it had problems going over 55 mph. He says he was making payments on her car along with everything else. So he took the car for the safety of the baby and planned on switching vehicles later on a return trip.

It is possible that he quit his job with the intention of leaving Houston. Given the fact that she lost custody of her 11 year old, I don't think she would have been able to stop Mark from doing the same with his child. She was far from the innocent angel that her family was portraying her as.

People have been wondering about this weird estranged set up they had. Why was she even with him at all when she was involved with other well to do men? The main reason was that Mark wanted to be with his son because he was worried about the welfare of the child. If the court can't trust you with a 11 year old....then what about a 3 year old. They were not together, they were sharing the same home and nothing else.

I thought this was a victim friendly forum? If you have something constructive to add, please do. Where do you think Michelle could be? Where should law enforcement look? In my honest opinion, trashing Michelle is not helping to find her. Again, moo.
 
Respectfully, Kira isn't trashing the victim. She is simply stating that the victim has had some troubles in her life and it is possible that the boyfriend might actually be a nice guy who is looking out for his son by packing him up and moving him out.
I think all of us want to find Michelle, safe and happy somewhere. But just like we shouldn't bash the victim, we might not want to make the boyfriend a murderer without more evidence from MSM just yet. Of course, we can have our suspicions...but I am trying to keep an open mind.
 
Bleach denatures things. So I think it destroys DNA pretty well. IIRC
 
I'm in no way blaming the victim. I'm simply describing the motivations of those people involved. He did kill her. The search should be over soon enough.
 
:banghead::banghead:
I think bleach does remove blood from some material/fabrics. both color and liquid would have some kind of reaction. I think if you use any kind of general cleaning kitchen or bath spray on a carpet, it would have a tendency to leave the carpet probably much cleaner and light in just those spots. Clorine Bleach would actually bleach it much lighter than the original color.That has pretty much been my experience with trying to maintain carpet. I'm not sure if there were more pets than just the cat, but even a young child walking around with drinks or snacks can cause spots and stains on carpet. I hate to jump to the conclusion that it was blood trying to be covered up when it may only be that Michelle scrubbed up heavy spills or spots, but if it was just done within hours of her disappearance, then police can determine if those spots were in fact freshly scrubbed and contain evidence of blood. They may know about it as the family said, but acting like they don't and not confirming so as not to give the POI or suspect any knowledge of what they do have prior to questioning. I still have a lot of questions. What was in the boxes that were being loaded up in M's car and why the need for all the blankets? The little one should have been riding in a car seat and it is not by any means cold enough in Odessa or West Texas requiring blankets. I wonder why the BF suddenly had no job at the PC place or if he even had a vehicle of his own? Doesn't sound like it to me.


The boxes could have contained clothes and shoes for the child, or his toys. If you're planning on taking your child to live with you, I think you would want to take everything that belonged to him. The child may have favorite books, lots of toys, and too many things to fit in a suitcase or two.
It may not be cold in Odessa right now, but it will be soon. October is almost here and the nights start getting chilly. Winter is right around the corner

Do you have some sort of inside information? If you do, you should get approved by a mod so you can tell us what is going on.
 
HPD: Body of missing mom found near Odessa

A body believed to be that of a 31-year-old Houston mother who has been missing for more than a week has been recovered in Odessa, Texas.

Police tell Eyewitness News they interviewed Michelle Warner's ex-boyfriend, Mark Castanello, in Houston on Sunday and he allegedly gave a statement implicating himself in her death.

Well, that was quick. At least he told LE where he dumped her body.....
 
I was reading the thread earlier and checked the FB page...and people were expressing their condolences. I check the web and could find nothing...now it makes sense.

Prayers to the family and friends of Michelle. Those poor children. So senseless.
:rose:
 
I was really hoping it would not turn out like this, but knew something was just not right with the bf. So sad for her children especially the baby, now he will have no parents. Just senseless and cruel.
 
Why the need to clean up wtih bleach if she had a broken neck? ? The baby was there and with him when he took her to Odessa. Dear lord.

Castellano's pic below. I certainly never pictured in my mind's eye his appearance as it is.

:rose: R.I.P. Michelle :rose:

I am so terribly sorry for another sad outcome. Especially for the children. Now, 2 kids have to live without their mom, one of those will have to live without mom and dad. It is simply devistating to children to live with the fact that their father killed their mother. Fit of rage, planned attack, anything - there is never a good excuse!! :( :( :(

He told detectives he'd had enough of her abuse toward him and their son.

And, the self-defense claims begin. :sigh:
 
Castellano stated he drove his son to Odessa, left him with relatives and returned to Houston to retrieve Warner's body. He then drove back to the Midland-Odessa area where he attempted to bury her body in an oilfield.

The Houston Press isn't considered MSM by some, but the Odessa American is and they are reporting the same information gleaned from the HPD press release. Their website doesn't allow for cut and paste, but here is the link to their story:

http://www.oaoa.com/news/crime_just...cle_27fc6a16-0be4-11e2-95a4-0019bb30f31a.html

It is approximately a 1,000 mile trip from the apartment in Sharpstown to Odessa and back.
 
They say Castellano told them he strangled Warner to death at their apartment on September 22, left her body behind, and drove to Odessa to drop off their son with his grandparents.

Police say Castellano then told them he drove back to southwest Houston, put Warner's body in a container then drove with it in the backseat back to Odessa. Castellano told police he dumped her body in a ditch near Midland after letting it sit in the car overnight.

Bond set at only $50K???? Why? I'd like to know if this guy has any priors.....and other children besides Cayden.

ETA: I found nothing for Mark Castellano in Houston. From LA and ties to Waco?
