Over two years, he sent messages indicating he wanted to sever family ties, which later proved to be misleading as he was deceased.
Authorities discovered Michael’s skeletal remains buried in the backyard of the couple’s home, with a gunshot wound to the back of his head.

On September 13, 2024, Laurie Shaver was convicted of second-degree murder, receiving a life sentence, providing closure for Michael's family.
