Veronica Butler, Jilian Kelley Death – Authorities have confirmed that two women from Kansas who went missing during a trip to Oklahoma to pick up children for a birthday party have been found dead. The arrests of four suspects in the case led to the recovery of two bodies in rural Oklahoma.
The women, 27-year-old Veronica Butler and 39-year-old Jilian Kelley, were driving through the Oklahoma panhandle when they disappeared.
Their vehicle was later discovered abandoned on a rural highway near the Oklahoma-Kansas state line, indicating foul play. The Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation made significant efforts to locate the women, ensure the safety of the children, and apprehend the suspects peacefully.
Unfortunately, the outcome was not what they had hoped for, and it has been a tragic situation for everyone involved. The identities of the bodies found have not been officially confirmed as the missing Kansas women, pending a report from the Medical Examiner’s Office.
The four defendants have been charged with multiple counts, including murder and kidnapping, and are currently in custody without bond at the Texas County Jail.
