Amarillo, Texas – Two women who went missing in Oklahoma and were allegedly murdered in a custody dispute over their children have resulted in the arrest of four suspects, court documents reveal.
Veronica Butler, 27, engaged in a custody battle with her children’s grandmother, Tiffany Machel Adams, who is linked to an anti-government organization. Adams, along with Tad Bert Cullum, Cole Earl Twombly, and Cora Twombly, have been apprehended on charges of first-degree murder, kidnapping, and conspiracy to commit murder.
The victims had arranged to meet Adams at a highway intersection to retrieve Butler’s children, aged 6 and 8, but were never seen again. Butler’s abandoned vehicle was discovered near the site, prompting her family to contact authorities.
Evidence of a violent altercation was found at the scene, with bloodstains and personal belongings scattered nearby. Cora Twombly’s daughter disclosed her mother’s involvement in the crimes, indicating a premeditated plan to harm the victims.
Adams and her accomplices were part of an anti-government group with religious ties, conducting weekly meetings under the name “God’s Misfits.” The suspects, armed with stun guns and disposable phones, executed the murder scheme on the victims, leaving behind a trail of incriminating evidence.
The bodies of the victims were discovered in a rural location, buried beneath freshly disturbed dirt. As the investigation unfolds, authorities are piecing together the sequence of events leading to the tragedy. The suspects remain in custody, awaiting legal proceedings to determine their fate.
