An Oklahoma City family is looking for answers in the case of a missing woman.

Ellaina Pechacek's fiancé, Travis Beadle, was arrested in connection with her murder. But despite Beadle's confession to police, the family says he would not tell investigators the location of Pechacek’s body.

Without any clues, the family is left not knowing where to start their search.

“As far as any kind of closure or finding where she is or what happened we have nothing,” said Rebecca Warner, Pechacek’s mother.

The last time anyone heard from Pechacek was June 4. Pechacek’s mother last saw her daughter on Mother's Day. That day, the two talked about calling off Pechacek's engagement with Beadle.

“Ever since they had moved to the city he wouldn't get a job and keep it. And so she was working six days a week, weekends, trying to pay the bills,” Warner said.

Warner became concerned after a week went by and none of her calls or texts were returned. Eventually police did a welfare check on the couple's Oklahoma City apartment.

Court documents describe the inside of their apartment, stating there was blood on the bedroom mattress, on the wall and on the surrounding furniture.

“He hasn't cooperated at all. He hasn't told them where she is. He just said that he did it and lawyered up,” said Warner.

Despite that confession, the family holds on to the chance Pechacek could still be alive.

“Everybody hopes it is not true and maybe they will find her and bring her home. I would just give anything for a miracle like that,” said Warner. “We just need to find Ellaina and bring her home.”

The family is now asking for Pechacek's friends to think back to old conversations or social media posts, hoping this will give them clues for them to find her body.

The family also has a group of volunteers ready to search an area once they can determine a location.

If you know anything, call the homicide tip line at (405) 297-1200.
