Devastating Loss: Mother of Six Mysteriously Vanishes, Later Found Deceased in Oklahoma

 



In a harrowing turn of events, a mother of six, Makayla Fay Meave-Byers, aged 30, has been found deceased, her body wrapped in a carpet, days after mysteriously disappearing while on a date in Oklahoma.


Meave-Byers was last seen on September 15, as she entered a white Chevrolet pick-up truck with tinted windows, believed to be driven by a man she may have been meeting for a date, according to the Pottawatomie County Sheriff’s Office.

Five agonizing days later, authorities confirmed the grim discovery of Meave-Byers' lifeless body just a few miles from her residence in Macomb. The circumstances surrounding her untimely demise are still under investigation.

Pottawatomie County Undersheriff Travis Dinwiddie disclosed that Meave-Byers appeared to have willingly left her home in the company of this unidentified man at approximately 5:30 PM on a Friday evening.

The man in question is described as a white individual with a bald head and a dark beard, but his identity remains unknown at this stage.


Following her disappearance, exhaustive search efforts were launched, employing drones and search dogs to scour the area for any signs of Meave-Byers. 

Tragically, it was her cousin who stumbled upon her lifeless body on September 20, concealed within waterlogged "old pieces of carpet" in a nearly four-foot drainage culvert beneath a road, as recounted by Mr. Dinwiddie.

He further revealed that Meave-Byers' family was present at the site when her remains were discovered. Preliminary examinations revealed no apparent signs of injury on her body, pending further assessment through an autopsy.

Medical examiners confirmed her identity on the subsequent Friday. Meave-Byers, a devoted kindergarten teacher's aide at Macomb Public School, was also a mother to six children, consisting of four step-daughters and two adopted children.


A GoFundMe page has been established by her cousin, Amber Davis, to raise funds for her memorial service. Davis expressed deep sorrow over the loss, describing Meave-Byers' transition from this world to her heavenly abode.

Macomb Public Schools, where Meave-Byers worked, released a statement expressing their profound grief at the loss of a beloved educator and parent, underscoring her genuine care and concern for students and families.

While the investigation is ongoing, authorities are awaiting the medical examiner's report to determine the cause of her tragic demise. Interviews with individuals connected to the case are also underway, though no confirmed suspects have emerged as yet.

In another  tragic incident, a 25-year-old man from Coquitlam faces severe charges of first-degree murder and attempted murder with a firearm following the fatal shooting of a Ridge Meadows RCMP officer. See detailed story here
