The Okmulgee County Sheriff's Office confirmed on Monday that two missing teenage girls and five other persons were discovered dead on a property in Oklahoma.

Police recovered the bodies of Ivy Webster, 14, and Brittany Brewer, 16, of Henryetta, both of whom had been missing since Sunday night.

Jesse McFadden, a 39-year-old registered sex offender who had served 16 years in jail for rape and was due to stand trial on Monday on accusations of procuring child porn, was also found dead by police.

According to the authorities, the girls were last seen with McFadden.

According to Webster's father, his daughter has previously spent the weekend with McFadden and his family without incident.

The bodies were found at a property in Henryetta, a city about 90 miles from Oklahoma City, authorities said.

Ivy Webster, 14, and Brittany Brewer, 16, were listed as endangered/missing by the Oklahoma Highway Patrol earlier on Monday. A registered sex offender named Jesse L. McFadden, 39, was also listed.

The outcome of McFadden's trial on Monday would have determined whether or not he was guilty of sexting an underage girl while he was imprisoned in 2017, according to the network.

Muskogee County issued a bench warrant for his arrest after he failed to appear.

Authorities looking for the missing girls visited his house and property on Monday. It was unclear if that's where cops found the bodies.

The other victims have not been identified by authorities.

"There is no suspect at large that we are looking for right at this moment," bureau spokesperson Gerald Davidson told reporters Monday. "So ... there is no threat to the community."

Okmulgee County Sheriff Eddy Rice said he couldn't immediately identify the seven bodies. But when asked if authorities are no longer looking for the missing girls and McFadden, Rice said, "We believe that we have found the persons. We just are waiting for confirmation."

Rice said that the girls' families have been informed, New York Post reported.

Rice told the Tulsa World newspaper that McFadden's residence was where the seven bodies were found. The Oklahoma Sex Offender Registry lists McFadden at the same address.

"Not in the residence, but just on the property," was where the victims were discovered, according to Davidson.
