I actually dated Mike and feel so lucky to have not been hurt.
He had every opportunity to live an amazing life but his addiction to drugs and a sick fascinating with porn portraying deceasced women led him to slowly become more devious over time. As a teen I went on a trip with him and while 2000 miles from my family discovered porn on his laptop that was of deceasced females and my blood absolutely turned cold. While I was on this trip he SA me by having me lay totally still so he could perform sexual acts on me even though I had said I didnt want him to. As soon as I found the porn I emailed my Dad and asked him to call me and say I needed to come home. He did with out any questions and I got on a flight the next morning.
Fast forward 15 years and I am up late in July 2021 cruising YouTube when I am randomly shown this case from Missouri...involving Michael J. Hendricks and my blood ran absolutely cold. When his photo came up and I saw it was him I threw up and started shaking. He goes to trial in July of 2022 and I am hoping to be there. I do NOT believe this is the only time something has happened because you don't kill someone and then just hack them up.
The jist of the story is his addiction led him to narcotics anonymous where he met Ybarra (his girlfriend at the time of Kensie Aubreys murder) Ybarra had a former foster daughter who had been removed from her care becUse an ex boyfriend of Ybarras had molested the girl. The girl got back in touch with her and started visiting her weekly. As a way to pressure her into (she is a minor btw) performing sexual acts she was shown photos of Aubrey tied up and gagged and was told they had killed her and that killing people turned Mike on. She went to the police and told them all that she had been shown and told, inckuding that her body was buried on the property which is what prompted the search. She is one brave kid and I wish I could hug her. I also feel tremendous guilt that I didnt report my SA and that I didn't tell anyone about the horrific porn that I had seen. The night I found out what Mike had done I woke my husband up and told him everything. Im now talking with a trauma therapist.
There are many more links to the case but I cant add them for some reason.
