Montana Man Tries to Steal Plane on Behalf of "Bad People" | Crime Alert 04.04.25

A new hearing scheduled in Andrew McGann’s double murder trial by a Washington County judge.   McGann, 29, charged  with the July stabbing deaths of Clinton and Cristen Brink.   He has pleaded not guilty to those charges.  Judge Joanna Taylor scheduled a status hearing for January 15, 2026. 

At McGann' last court appearance in November, he appeared in civilian clothes and without visible restraints.  He attorneys have file a number of motions including ones that would exclude the death penalty.  Washington County Prosecuting Attorney Brandon Carter says his office intends to pursue the death penalty.

The former teacher's arrest for the cruel double murder of a mom and dad trying to save their two young daughters from a vicious attack during a family hike on a trail in Arkansas, known as Devil’s Den State Park, ended a five-day manhunt for the alleged predator.

Clinton David Brink, 43, and his wife, Cristen Amanda Brink, 41, were hiking with their 7- and 9-year-old daughters through Devil’s Den State Park when a man attacked them on the trail around 2:30 p.m., officials say. The two young girls ran to safety as they heard their mother's screams echoing; currently, both girls are with family members and suffered no physical injuries. The parents are being hailed as heroes for saving their daughters from the vicious fatal attack. 

James Andrew McGann, 28, was arrested in Springdale, Arkansas, around 30 miles from the crime scene at a hair salon. getting his hair cut, possibly shaved. McGann is charged with two counts of capital murder, according to a release from the Arkansas State Police. The motive for the brutal attack that resulted in the deaths of both parents is still unclear.

DEVIL'S DEN "KILLER" DOUBLE KILLER BACK IN COURT IN JANUARY AS DEFENSE TRIED TO GET DEATH PENALTY OFF THE TABLE

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/fa1e6291-2bf0-47c8-a299-b3c000062bbf/transcript

A sophomore at the University of New Mexico, Tara Calico is in school full-time while working at a bank.

At 9:30 a.m. on September 20, Tara takes her mom's pink Huffy bike for her daily bike ride, telling her mom she is playing tennis with her boyfriend later, so if she isn't home by noon, come looking for her. An offhand comment her mother takes to heart.

When Tara isn't back at 12:05 p.m., her mother, Patty, gets in her car to retrace Tara's bike route, expecting to see Tara walking on the side of the road with her bike. Driving out to the train tracks where Tara normally turns around to head back home, Patty doesn't see Tara and assumes she missed her and heads back home.

Patty calls Tara's boyfriend, who says he hasn't seen Tara, then calls the police in a panic. Police begin an immediate search for the 19-year-old, as her disappearance is out of the ordinary.

Her sister, Michele, joins in the search with Tara's friends and boyfriend. A storm is coming, the temperature is dropping, friends walking two feet apart, hand in hand across both sides of the roadway, looking for any sign of Tara.

About two and a half miles down the search route, some tire tracks that look spun out are discovered on the side of the road. It seems like there was a scuffle, and the bike marks are visible amongst the tire marks from the vehicle.

Tara is known to use a distinctive, bright yellow Walkman on her bike ride, and when a broken piece of a bright yellow Walkman is found in the area of the tire marks, her sister, Michele, believes it is Tara leaving a trail to follow.

A cassette tape of the band "Boston" is discovered about three miles from her home on the side of Highway 47. Tara's mother, Patty, identifies the tape as belonging to Tara, saying that it is what Tara was listening to on her bike ride.

Tara Calico was last seen riding her mother's neon pink Huffy mountain bicycle on Highway 47 about two miles from her home in Belen.

A dirty white or light gray 1953 Ford pickup truck with a white, handmade shell was following directly behind her. Still, investigators don't know if the truck has anything to do with the disappearance of Tara Calico.
