COPS: Teen's death linked to murder of Skiatook grandmother

Authorities found the body of a 16-year-old girl near Skiatook Lake early Tuesday.

Skiatook Police say the death is connected to a murder scene Monday at a home in Skiatook.

We're told Skiatook police responded to a house on East Oak Street and South C Street Monday around 5 p.m. where they found Esther Driskell dead.

Investigators say the woman in her 70s was repeatedly stabbed and there was no sign of a forced entry.

Skiatook police tell KRMG 19-year-old Michael Devin Stanley was taken into custody Tuesday as a suspect.

He's the half-brother of the young girl, 16-year-old Larissa Fraley, and the great-grandson of Driskell.

Detectives are looking into a motive.
