A missing Missouri woman was found dead, and her boyfriend was charged with murder in connection to her death.

According to the Barry County Sheriff’s Office, Aaron Malone, 23, was charged with the murder of his girlfriend, Aspen Lewis, 24. 

Court records obtained by FOX 4 Kansas City state that Malone contacted Barry County Sheriff’s deputies on Monday, November 25, to report Lewis’ possible abduction. 

Investigators said when they responded to the residence, they saw a large blood stain in the roadway behind Malone’s truck, along with pieces of jewelry.

Officials said Lewis was last seen at her Exeter residence early on the morning of Nov. 25.

Malone provided officers with a verbal and written statement about Lewis’ disappearance. However, officials said due to inconsistencies with Malone’s statement, a criminal investigation began. 

Authorities told FOX 4 that they obtained surveillance video showing Malone’s vehicle arriving at Lewis’ residence just before midnight on Sunday, November 24, and not long after, screaming could be heard.
