But no one could ever have imagined the man she met on a dating app would come close to taking her life, holding her captive, and assaulting her, repeatedly. Trevor Double, 48, is now serving 40 to 60 years for the crimes he committed against McCleary including assault, unlawful imprisonment, and torture. The weapons started getting bigger and heavier. McCleary said her first time meeting Double in person, she realized he was not the man he represented himself to be on the app.
His pictures had to be about 20 years old, which would explain why he resisted doing a video chat with her. McCleary said she told Double, who she later discovered had also given her a fake name, she made it clear that she just wanted to be friends and she thought he understood that.
Then a few days later, Double shows up at McCleary's home in Battle Creek, unannounced, and invites her to breakfast. In an effort to just be kind, she obliged. But that's when the atrocities began. Double took McCleary to his home in Michigan's Bangor Township where, for 28 days, she was the target of daily beatings. And that continued until the day that I was rescued," she said.
She began trying to convince him that she needed medical treatment. But she said Double just kept pacing around his home, which had become her prison, saying he couldn't let her go because she'd report him to authorities. McCleary, desperate to see her son again, continued to plead with Double to take her to a hospital. He eventually did.
It was at the hospital that McCleary was able to alert the medical staff that the man who dropped her off was the one who caused all of her injuries and had been holding her captive. Bacon's mutilated body was found in the rural Michigan home of Mark Latunski. Latunski is serving life in prison after being convicted of first-degree premeditated murder and mutilation of a corpse. Then in , in a motel in Detroit, Bashar Kallabat was killed by Jimmy Pickett, whom he also met online.
