Search warrants reveal new details about a mass murder-suicide that happened earlier this month in Henryetta, Oklahoma.

Police believe Jesse McFadden killed six people then himself. Now, new documents show McFadden could have planned the whole thing.

An affidavit for a search warrant said McFadden talked to his mother the day before the bodies were found. He told her he was going to kill himself.

New details show McFadden might have been on edge about charges he was facing for a crime he committed in prison involving an underage girl.

He was due in court on May 1.

This was the same day McFadden allegedly killed his wife and her three children along with two teenage girls that were spending the weekend with the family before killing himself.

One of those victims was Shannon Boykin's granddaughter Ivy Webster.

“I'm pissed, and I’m hurt, and I want her back,” Boykin said.

Court documents said Webster's family spoke to Ivy Saturday, April 29. 

The next day, they said they were able to reach McFadden when she didn't come home, but the call dropped. 

Other documents show investigators are searching for DNA, weapons, electronic devices, and materials associated with sexual exploitation. 

In his truck, they confiscated keys, a straw and they're processing photos from a DVD found.

They also looked into a storage unit, but no items of interest were found. 

As for the house, there's no details mentioning what was found inside.

“Had my daughter known the conditions of that house it wouldn't have happened. I don't know how kids were living there,” Boykin said.

The Okmulgee County deputy clerk said there are several more search warrants, but their returns have not been filed yet.
