Former Teacher Arrested for Devil's Den Double Murder

James Andrew McGann, a 28-year-old former fifth-grade teacher at Spring Creek Elementary in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma, was arrested and charged with two counts of capital murder for killing Clinton David Brink and Cristen Amanda Brink at Devil's Den State Park in Arkansas. McGann, who had passed background checks and left his Oklahoma position voluntarily, had recently been hired for the upcoming year at Springdale Public Schools in Arkansas but had not yet interacted with students. The Brinks were attacked and killed while hiking with their two young daughters, who were unharmed and are now with family. Authorities have not disclosed a motive and state that McGann acted alone. The arrest came after a five-day manhunt, with McGann apprehended at a Springdale barbershop. The investigation is ongoing, with the FBI and law enforcement involved, and school officials have expressed condolences to the victims' family.
