Man Arrested for Suspected Murder After Remains Found

Michael Royce Sparks, 62, has been arrested in connection with the suspected murder of his neighbors, Stephanie and Daniel Menard, at the Olive Dell Ranch nudist resort in California. The couple, aged 73 and 79 respectively, were reported missing on Sunday, with their unlocked vehicle, cell phones, and purse found nearby.
