CM (poi) is a documented MMA fighter~ frightening.

That’s freaked me out since we found out about him. It’d be really hard to fight/escape someone who has a lot of MMA training. IF it’s him, I’d think he’d have had to have a weapon to control 2 people. I wonder if he made Michael erase the footage and turn off the cameras?

Ok, now that more is public I can say more... The connection to the property or County is yes his prior court date, but current Girlfriend (GM) who on her facebook has pics of his kids was arrested in the adjacent county where the two bodies were found. More suitable for a private send if you want the info. Someone look into Andre Ogans TPD Unsolved Crimes.. That is how I found out about April Pease with a little help from locals.. No prob for submitting tip but I think people alot closer have already talked. .. more need too

This does not surprise me in the least. I would bet there are even more unsolved crimes and missing from this guy. MOO

Shoot. I was hoping he had held them hostage somewhere. I hope they investigate any involvement he had in the disappearance of April too.

He had to have had help. Austin is not walking distance from Temple where they are believed to be abducted. How does he get the car to ATX, and ditch it with Mike's phone? An Uber would create a digital trail. Someone had to pick him up, or take the car for him to ATX. Then get back to Temple to grab Mike and Jenn and take them to Oklahoma? I wonder if they had already been killed and he stashed them somewhere.

I thought the very same thing when I read about the security footage being erased. Fear, intimidation and control.

His previous case of the burglary in Jenna's home, the Ring Doorbell was used as evidence against the perp. He knew Michaels house, and how to avoid detection. I would speculate he forced him to delete the footage under duress.

In a phone conversation before he was arrested, Marks told Channel 6's Jasmin Caldwell, Scott's disappearance was sad but that he had nothing to do with it.

"Not only do I have no history of violence towards women or children, I teach free women's assault programs or did before I went on the run away from her," said Marks.

Meanwhile, the mother of two of Marks' other children, Ginelle McDonough, and another woman, Maya Maxwell, were being held in the Muskegon County jail in Michigan for Temple Police.

Muskegon Police said their fugitive team arrested the women Jan. 11.

Maxwell is charged with Obstructing Police/Evidence Destroying. McDonough is charged with Harboring a Fugitive, according to Muskegon Police.

McDonough is identified as Marks' wife in the court documents from Washington state. She said they were married in October, 2003.

Oh no!!! So sad to see they’ve been found deceased. Prayers going out to their families and friends. Prayers for swift justice as well.

Only thing that could have stopped this train wreck is if he’d been locked up for all of the domestic “terror” he’d previously inflicted on partners.
