Search Warrant Sheds Light On Henryetta Mass Murder-Suicide

Newly released search warrants reveal new details about a Henryetta man who killed six people and himself in Okmulgee County.

In one of the search warrants, the investigator said he was made aware of a conversation between Jesse McFadden his mother on April 30th, saying he would not go back to prison and had decided to kill himself. McFadden was set to go to trial the next day, to face charges in a 2017 case of sexting a minor, while he was serving time in prison for rape.

That sexting victim says McFadden messaged her on Facebook, the night before the murders, saying he had made a good life while out of prison, and blamed her for keeping the case against him alive.

McFadden never showed up for that trial and that's the same day investigators found him, his wife, her three kids, and two of their friends, all shot to death on their property. The search warrants also show investigators searched McFadden's truck and collected prints, swabs of door handles and the steering wheel, a couple of Mcdonald's cups and straws, and some keys.

They also searched a storage unit that Holly McFadden had rented in Henryetta, but they collected no evidence there.

The Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation is still assisting in this case and sent out a statement saying there are a lot of rumors and speculation but they are basing their conclusions on facts. Representatives said when they can release more, they will.
