Mother Catches Son Bringing Chopped Up Body Into Her House

On January 26, 2022, 24-year-old Alexis Gabe filled up her car at a Chevron station in Antioch, California, around 6:30 p.m. She received a text from her boyfriend: Are you still coming over? She replied that she could only come by for a bit. Seven minutes later, surveillance cameras captured her arriving at his house. She was there to break up with him. Two hours later, her car left the property—but the person driving took an unusual route, one Alexis never used. Twelve minutes later, the car pulled into a quiet residential neighborhood six miles away. A masked figure, noticeably larger than Alexis, stepped out. Her phone pinged: Did you make it home? Alexis Gabe was never seen alive again.

The Suspicious Boyfriend

When Alexis's family reported her missing the next day, they told police something alarming: her boyfriend Marshall Jones had allegedly threatened to kill her if they broke up. An officer was dispatched to Marshall's home. On the surface, Marshall seemed cooperative, recounting how Alexis had come over, they'd hung out for a couple hours, and she'd left around 9 p.m. But his demeanor struck the officer as oddly detached—at times making light of the situation. When asked if he had a car, Marshall grew visibly uncomfortable.
