Police found her naked and with bleeding head wounds, and an autopsy revealed that she was strangled to death.

The police decided to inquire about Marcus further, and Clark took advantage of the occasion to go to his home. The people watching heard an audible but quiet sound from inside the home and ran into the house to discover Clark killed by a self-inflicted gunshot.
