"According to prosecutors, Prowell met 51-year-old Miguel Angel King on July 20, 2021 after the two first chatted on a gay dating app. The circumstances of King's murder haven't been shared, but he was fatally shot, and Prowell is accused of then stealing his car. King's remains would then later be found on August 14, 2021, in the Angeles National Forest."
"But prosecutors say that Prowell met up with another man, 53-year-old Robert Gutierrez, two years later, in August 2023, after chatting on a dating app. The two met about a mile from where Prowell lives, and two days later, Gutierrez's family reported him missing. His body has still not been found. When police went to Prowell's home last week to arrest him, they say they found Gutierrez's car in Prowell's garage."
