Sandy MaloneOkmulgee County, OK – Seven bodies were found on Monday, including those of two missing teenage girls, on a property where a registered sex offender lived near Henryetta in Okmulgee County.
Okmulgee County Sheriff Eddy Rice confirmed the bodies had been found at a property located near Holly Road and South 240 Road at a press conference at about 4 p.m. on May 1, KOKI reported.
Authorities had put out an alert about the missing girls – 14-year-old Ivy Webster and 16-year-old Brittany Brewer – on Monday morning.
Webster’s mother told KOKI that a total of seven bodies had been found on a property belonging to 39-year-old Jesse McFadden.
She said deputies told her that five of the seven dead bodies were kids and two were adults.
Authorities have not yet confirmed the identities, KOKI reported.
The sheriff said they were waiting for confirmation from the medical examiner.
Investigators said that Webster and Brewer were reportedly staying with Holly McFadden and her daughter, Tiffany, and Jesse McFadden.

Webster’s mother filed a missing person report about her daughter on Monday morning after she hadn’t been able to reach her for a couple days, KOCO reported.
She told authorities that the McFaddens were supposed to be taking everyone to McAlester to work on a ranch.
Authorities confirmed that nobody from the family had visited the ranch, KOCO reported.
Family members told KOKI that nobody had been in touch with any of the McFaddens or either of the teen girls staying with them since Sunday.
