He said that Jermaine forgot her phone in his car.

He said he wanted to go through her phone and read her messages, but he didn't know the code to unlock it.

So he claimed that he broke it in frustration.

And then two days later, on Monday, June 18th,

He threw her phone out of his truck at mile marker 94 on Highway 12.

This is near a place called Three Devils Creek in Idaho.

It's 137 miles southwest from where Michael was now living with his family, like an insanely far distance.

You broke it.

It's not your phone.

Police end up going to this area.

They search for the phone.

Of course, they never find it.

And if you're thinking this seems extremely suspicious, well, police had the same exact thought.

Because the more they looked into Michael and his relationship with Jermaine, the more they realized just how toxic it was.

And that Michael could be their main suspect.

So we're going to hop back in time again a little bit here because there's a lot we haven't really told you guys about Jermaine and Michael's tumultuous, again, understatement, seven-year relationship.

And that includes a pretty upsetting history of domestic violence, which is our fourth clue.

Here is what we know.

One of the earliest incidents we can pinpoint happened five years before Jermaine disappeared.

Late at night on April 13th, 2013, the police are called for help at an address in Ashley.
