Bodies of Missing Washington Couple Found in Remote Area

— -- The bodies of a Washington State couple who went missing last month after failing to attend a concert with friends have been found, authorities said.

Patrick Shunn, 45, and Monique Patenaude, 46, were found in a remote area a few miles north of their home in Arlington, according to Shari Ireton, Director of Communications for the Snohomish County Sheriff’s Office. Detectives used information they received from suspect Tony Reed, who helped them pinpoint the exact location of the bodies, Ireton said.

Shunn and Patenaude were last seen April 11 after they planned to go to an Iron Maiden concert in Tacoma but never showed up. Neighbors reported them missing the next day.

Days later, police announced they had probably cause for the arrest of Tony Reed and his brother, John. Tony Reed, 49, was taken into custody on May 16 at the U.S.-Mexico border, Ireton said. He was booked into the Snohomish County jail on Saturday and was charged with two counts of first-degree murder, unlawful possession of a firearm, assault, violation of a no-contact order and driving with a suspended license.

Tony Reed's bond has been set at $5.225 million. He plead not guilty to the murder and unlawful possession of a firearm charges, the Associated Press reported.

The brothers fled to Mexico after the murder, according to police. John Reed is still at large. Investigators said they found a car belonging to him on April 16 in Ellensburg, Washington.

He was described by police as 5-foot-8 and 190 pounds with hazel eyes and gray hair.

A cause of death has yet to be determined by the Snohomish County Medical Examiner, Ireton said.
