On May 1, 2023, 39-year-old convicted rapist and registered sex offender Jesse McFadden murdered six people at his rural property near Henryetta, Oklahoma, before dying by suicide.
The victims were:
McFadden was supposed to appear in court that morning on charges involving soliciting sexual conduct with a minor and possession of child sexual abuse material.
He never appeared.
Authorities launched a search, eventually discovering seven bodies on McFadden’s property.
Investigators determined that McFadden had shot all six victims in the head before killing himself. Medical examiners also found that Ivy and Brittany had been sexually assaulted before they were murdered.
McFadden had already spent 17 years in prison for a 2003 first-degree rape conviction. He was released in 2020, several years before completing his original 20-year sentence, following state corrections time-calculation policies.
But his contact with minors had continued even while he was incarcerated.
In 2017, authorities discovered McFadden using a contraband cellphone to communicate with a 16-year-old girl. That eventually resulted in new felony charges.
Yet McFadden remained free on bond for approximately two and a half years while that case repeatedly moved through the court system.
On the night before the murders, McFadden reportedly sent threatening messages to the woman involved in that case, blaming her for the trial he was supposed to face the following morning.
Instead, six people were dead by morning.
Because McFadden killed himself, he never faced prosecution for their murders.
