In actual fact, they assume she was murdered by her boyfriend, Marshall Curtis Jones (above, inset). Sadly when cops lastly caught up with Jones this month, it didn’t go properly.

Six months after she first went lacking, Alexis’ dad and mom received an enormous lead! As we reported, the Gabes acquired copies of handwritten notes by Jones after his dying — notes which authorities imagine are the important thing to discovering Alexis’ physique. Included within the papers, discovered within the rubbish at a home owned by Jones’ sister, are detailed driving instructions which result in a rural highway in Pioneer, California — about 60 miles east of Sacramento.
Police imagine they confirmed Jones adopted the instructions. Antioch police instructed the Gabe household they have been in a position to monitor his cellphone to a location en route:
“Marshall turned off his cellphone for a number of hours through the interval he drove to Pioneer… We imagine he drove this route as a result of about half of the best way there he received misplaced and needed to flip his cellphone on to get again on the proper route.”
Cops instantly adopted the instructions and commenced their search in earnest for the 27-year-old’s stays. They’ve searched 200 acres within the space, together with draining an 8 million-gallon pond. Alexis’ father Gwyn Gabe instructed ABC7:
“Sadly, they discovered nothing.”
He added:
“They’re solely specializing in Pioneer. They strongly imagine she is there.”
He and his spouse are nonetheless hopeful their daughter is alive. Gwyn stated:
“Till we discover a physique, we’re simply going to maintain believing that she’s nonetheless alive.”
So unhappy. If police are proper, and he or she is useless, every single day of false hope is one other delay for the dad and mom to heal. The earlier she’s discovered, both manner, the higher. It’s going to give them the closure they want.
Sadly cops could have blown the one probability that they had of ever discovering her. In the event that they’re proper, solely Jones knew precisely the place she was. The factor that’s going unsaid in lots of reviews we’re seeing about this new info, info that appears to show Jones knew the place she was, is how a lot of a failure that is on the a part of police. They might have already got discovered Alexis, alive or useless, if solely they may handle to arrest a Black suspect with out killing him. Nobody goes to defend the actions of the person if he murdered his girlfriend, however simply because he was a suspected killer didn’t imply he didn’t have rights. And loads of suspects are detained with out being killed every single day.
To be sincere we’re principally desirous about Alexis’ household proper now. In a press release, Gwyn Gabe referred to as Marshall’s dying “tragic and surprising,” revealing:
“My spouse cried so laborious upon listening to of his passing.”
It was all too clear how upset the household was with how this went down. The grieving father defined, holding again tears himself:
“We wished to satisfy with him head to head. We wished to look him within the eye and ask him why, ask him, ‘The place is Alexis?’”
They simply hoped to get to face him — and discover out as soon as and for certain the place their daughter is. You may study extra in regards to the tried arrest (under):
