Houston disappearance solved when boyfriend can no longer live with lie

Mark Augustin Castellano told talk show host Dr. Phil the same story he'd told police about his missing girlfriend. In an interview for national television, he said Michelle Warner, 31, walked out of their Houston apartment after a fight Sept. 22 and disappeared. Castellano put her body in a closet and called his parents in Odessa to ask if they could stay, telling them Warner had walked out again. Three days later, Warner's brother called HPD's missing persons department. A photo of Warner holding Cayden was shared on Facebook more than 80 times in the Houston area by friends, family and strangers. Castellano, a computer technician, kept repeating his story about Warner walking out, but he had already returned to their Sharpstown apartment. Soon, he'd speak with a producer from Dr. Phil and agree to an interview at his parents' home six days after the murder. Five days after Warner's death, homicide detectives Waters and Brian Harris began coordinating with Missing Persons. "There was just one particular fact that didn't fit his story," Waters said. Because Castellano had taken the couple's only vehicle to Odessa, police asked how Warner could have left the apartment. Castellano and his brother bought plane tickets and flew to Houston Sunday morning for the voluntary interview.
