The murder of Blake Chappell
October 15th, 2011, marked a memorable day for Blake Chappell as he attended the homecoming dance at East Coweta High School with his girlfriend, Rion. The couple enjoyed dinner together before joining their friends at the dance, where they danced and celebrated the night away.
After the dance, Blake went to Rion's house and spent some quality time with her, watching a movie before eventually heading to his friend's place. Wanting to extend their time together, Blake made a daring decision to sneak back to Rion's house, entering through her bedroom window. However, their secret rendezvous was abruptly interrupted when Rion's grandmother discovered Blake's presence and alerted Rion's mother.
Blake hastily left through the bedroom window and began the long walk back to his friend's house. Along the way, he sent multiple apologetic texts to Rion and her mother, expressing remorse for his actions. He even claimed to have encountered a police officer during his journey.
Rion contacted his friend the next morning, only to learn that Blake had not returned. Alarmed, she immediately sensed that something was amiss. Blake was reported missing, and a search operation was launched, yielding several reported sightings. However, despite the efforts to locate him, Blake remained elusive.
Two months later, on December 18th, 2011, a tragic discovery was made. A body was found facedown in a creek near the SummerGrove Golf Club. Although no identification was found at the scene, the body's distinctive lip piercing and Playboy bunny tattoo on the chest confirmed it to be Blake Chappell.
The mystery surrounding Blake's death deepened. Who was responsible for his murder? Had the body been originally left at the creek or was it dumped there after his demise? These unanswered questions added to the sorrow and confusion surrounding Blake's untimely end, leaving his loved ones grappling with grief and seeking justice for his tragic fate.
