Tragedy Strikes as Promising Teen Athlete’s Fears Realized in Alleged Rape and Murder

Kelly Tyler Published January 20, 2024

In a heartbreaking turn of events, the fears expressed by an Oklahoma teenage girl became a devastating reality as her ex-boyfriend stands accused of raping and murdering her. Madeline Bills, an 18-year-old standout high school basketball player with a promising future, had confided her genuine concerns to friends about her ex-boyfriend, Chace Cook, who now faces charges that paint a chilling picture of betrayal and violence.

Madeline had taken precautions to alter her sleeping arrangements due to her fears for safety, as revealed in a police affidavit. Unfortunately, these concerns unfolded tragically when Madeline’s lifeless body was discovered in her bedroom on April 22 last year.

Despite Cook’s initial claim of Navy training in Texas, investigators uncovered surveillance footage that placed him at the scene of the crime on the night Madeline was found dead. The timeline of events, including an unknown suspect climbing over Madeline’s fence, a vehicle resembling Cook’s car near her home, and the suspect entering and leaving her poolside bedroom in the early hours, unfolded through the investigation.

Autopsy results confirmed Madeline’s cause of death as strangulation, accompanied by a disturbing discovery on Cook’s phone—a video allegedly showing him raping her while she lay unconscious.

Cook’s alibi quickly disintegrated as detectives presented evidence of his presence near Madeline’s home on the fateful night. Currently in custody and facing charges of rape and murder, Cook’s legal proceedings are underway, with Cleveland County District Attorney Greg Mashburn filing a death penalty motion, emphasizing the alleged crimes as “especially heinous, atrocious, and cruel.”

The community mourns the loss of a promising young athlete, and Madeline’s family grapples with the devastating confirmation that her fears were tragically realized.
