There they found the bodies of his wife, Holly Guess, 35; her three children, Rylee Allen, 17, Michael Mayo, 15, and Tiffany Guess, 13; and Tiffany’s friends, Ivy Webster, 14, and Brittany Brewer, 16, who had slept over that Saturday night.

Now the victim in McFadden’s alleged underage sexting case has come forward, saying that he sent her a cryptic message the night before the massacre,Fox 23 Newswas first to report.
On that Sunday night, Kaitlyn Babb, 23, received a Facebook message saying, “I did exactly what I promised I would do when I got out. (sic) I got a marketing job making great money and was being advanced been there two years now and made a great life like I promised I would do with you,“NBC Newsreports.
“Now it’s all gone,” he continued.
“I told you I wouldn’t go back.

Babb told NBC News she, too, felt like McFadden was blaming her for continuing with the case.
In testifying against McFadden, “I thought I was protecting people,” Babb told NBC News. “I thought this was going to keep him from hurting more people.”
Babb told NBC News how McFadden preyed upon her when she was just 16, getting her to trust him.
Even though she says he knew she was underage, he still asked her for pictures of her without her shirt on, she told NBC News.
“I knew I was doing something I shouldn’t have been doing,” she added. “He made me feel like he cared. Even though I was only 16 years old, I felt like he loved me.”
“I was brainwashed,” Babb said.
On July 8, 2016, McFadden’s phone was confiscated in prison. McFadden was accused of sending the nude photos to a minor and using a contraband cell phone to communicate with that minor from prison.
After that, McFadden began threatening Babb, who realized “he didn’t love me,” she told NBC News. “He was sick. It was all made up.”
When she learned on May 1 that McFadden and his stepdaughter’s two friends had been reported missing, she hid out in an AirBnB she rented nearly an hour away from the courthouse, she told NBC News.
“I was terrified he was coming for me,” she said.
