A suspect has been arrested for the heartless double murder of two parents who were slain protecting their young daughters on a hiking trail in Arkansas’ Devil’s Den State Park on Saturday — ending a frantic, five-day manhunt.
James Andrew McGann, 28, was arrested Wednesday in Springdale, Ark., and charged with two counts of capital murder, according to a release from the Arkansas State Police.
Clinton David Brink, 43, and his wife, Cristen Amanda Brink, 41, were hiking with their two daughters, 7 and 9, through Devil’s Den State Park on Saturday when a man alleged to be McGann attacked them on a trail around 2:30 p.m., officials said.
The children escaped unharmed and reported that their parents were stabbed along a trail at the tourist destination famous for its caves and rock formations, according to a CNN report.
“Clinton and Cristen died heroes protecting their little girls, and they deserve justice,” the Brink family told local ABC News in a statement.

Elementary school teacher
When some female “judgey” from Jamaica or Haiti releases him, send him to Madmani’s NYC. He’ll be a perfect fit where there are no policemen.
RIP ....
Justice be served .
What Is it ?
If he gets released I think he should be renamed ‘sniper target’.
Media found a white guy to obsess about
Elementary school teacher?
For whom? The Addams Family?...................
McGann worked in Oklahoma as an elementary school teacher the past two years, and had been hired by an Arkansas school district to teach this coming year. That must have required passing a background check. The person who hired him might need some scrutiny...
Nothing on a motive that I can find. Sudden psychosis syndrome? Drug enhanced? Was this his first rodeo or serial killer? Knew the victims (seems unlikely)?
Seems possessed
The killing occurred at, “Devil’s Den.” His eyes suggest it was his personal digs.
Looks like the first candidate for the insane asylums.
If the children ID the killer, find a rope and a tree.
A mugshot is a series of photos for documentation of a person that has been arrested and charged with a crime.
But that is not important right now.

Yeah, but he is school teacher. This kind of scum around kids is frightening.
They found a devil at Devil’s Den Park.
I bet he planned to kill the parents and abduct the girls, but they got away.
That brings the movie “Escape from New York” into reality.
All of New York City becomes a prison in the movie.
Candidate for the Epstein cell.
This is a very strange story - witnesses say his car had the license plate covered with some sort of tape.
More will come out (hopefully) and now the media can pivot from the non-White NY City shooter onto the White guy in Arkansas.
Ditto for the city councilman that was set on fire in Virginia - all the parties are White so expect the media to go crazy...
It appears that school teacher is overtaking postal worker as the profession that employs the most lunatics.
