Rebecca Kay Park’s Sister Kimberly Park and Fiancé Richard Falor Arrested Following Her Death
Authorities have confirmed that both the fiancé and sister of Rebecca Kay Park were taken into custody late last night.
At this time, specific charges have not been publicly disclosed. Additional details are expected to be released as the investigation continues.
Rebecca Kay Park was last seen on the night of November 3rd near her mother’s residence in Boon Township, Michigan.
According to early reports, she was allegedly observed entering a dark-colored vehicle. However, investigators have received conflicting accounts regarding the exact description of the vehicle from her mother, Cortney, who was reportedly the last known person to see her.
Following Rebecca’s disappearance, Cortney sent a series of urgent text messages to Richard Lee Falor, the father of Rebecca’s unborn child and Cortney’s former partner.
Despite not having a close relationship, the messages appeared frantic and included statements such as:
- “Call me back asap”
- “Rich it’s Cortney call me back”
- “Dude call me”
- “Ur ole lady took off with some dude in a black car”
In the days immediately following Rebecca’s disappearance, her cell phone was recovered on a nearby roadway—located by her mother.
The discovery, combined with earlier inconsistencies, has led to ongoing speculation surrounding Cortney’s involvement or knowledge prior to police locating Rebecca.
Online records and discussions indicate that both Cortney and Falor have prior criminal histories, including offenses related to sexual assault; however, officials have not confirmed whether those histories are relevant to the current investigation.
After 21 days missing, Rebecca was tragically found deceased.
Her body was located by her father during a search effort, only a short distance from the residence where she was last seen.
Reports indicate her body was discovered approximately 15 feet off the roadway and appeared to have been dragged to the location.
Rebecca was nine months pregnant at the time of her death.
Authorities have confirmed that the baby was not found with her, and details regarding the infant’s status remain unclear.
The investigation remains active and ongoing.
Officials are expected to release further information regarding the arrests and potential charges as evidence is processed and autopsy results are completed.
Anyone with additional information related to the case is encouraged to contact law enforcement.

Angela Johnson and Her Son DeAngelo Johnson Killed After Shooting Inside Home in Chicago, Mother’s Boyfriend in Custody
CHICAGO — A 47-year-old mother and her 27-year-old son were fatally shot inside a residence in Chicago’s Austin neighborhood on the West Side late Thursday night, September 24, 2026, according to Chicago police.
The victims were identified as Angela Johnson, 47, and DeAngelo Johnson, 27. Police said a suspect, identified as Angela Johnson’s boyfriend, was taken into custody following the shooting.
The deadly shooting happened in the 800 block of North Parkside Avenue at approximately 10:43 p.m. Witnesses reported hearing gunshots coming from the basement of the residence and called 911.
When Chicago police officers arrived, they found the two victims suffering from gunshot wounds.
Angela Johnson was found in the basement with a gunshot wound to her chest. Police-radio traffic indicated she had been shot on the right side of her chest.
DeAngelo Johnson was found on the first floor with multiple gunshot wounds. Radio traffic indicated that he had suffered two gunshot wounds to his back.
Both victims were initially unresponsive and in critical condition. Emergency personnel performed CPR on DeAngelo Johnson before both victims were transported to Mount Sinai Hospital, where they were pronounced dead.
According to police-radio traffic, one victim was pronounced dead at approximately 11:18 p.m., while the male victim was pronounced dead around 11:21 p.m.
Investigators found extensive evidence inside the residence, including approximately 23 shell casings in a basement bedroom. Additional shell casings were reportedly recovered in other areas of the basement, including the stairway, main room and bedroom.
Officers initially recovered a firearm and shell casings from the basement bedroom. Police later located a second firearm inside the home, bringing the total number of recovered firearms to two.
Authorities have not publicly stated who owned the firearms or confirmed which weapon, if either, was used in the fatal shooting.
Police also reported that DeAngelo Johnson was wearing an empty holster when officers found him on the first floor. That discovery prompted an officer-safety alert as officers searched the residence for the missing firearm.
Chicago police said the shooting appeared to be domestic-related and identified the alleged offender as the mother’s boyfriend.
Radio traffic indicated that a person had been detained by approximately 11:26 p.m. The official police report later confirmed that the known offender was taken into custody.
Two witnesses were reportedly available to identify the alleged offender, and officers conducted a show-up identification procedure near the scene.
Police have not released additional information about potential charges against the suspect.
The investigation into the Chicago Austin neighborhood double shooting remains ongoing. Detectives are continuing to examine the circumstances that led to the shooting, the relationship between the people involved and the role of the two recovered firearms.
The deaths of Angela Johnson and DeAngelo Johnson are being investigated as a double homicide.
