Chance Comanche and his ex-girlfriend Sakari Harnden are now facing murder charges.

A couple of days ago, tragedy struck for the family and friends of Maryana Rodgers, The 23-year-old woman was a close friend of the now-criminal, Sakari Harnden. Rodgers was expecting to see Sakari for a "kinky sex" session that was planned by the 19-year-old. Chance Comanche, former G-League player and ex of Sakari was posing as a "trick," which is someone who pays someone else to fulfill their sexual fantasies. Rodgers was down to do it since she was expecting a payout of $1000.

When Rodgers showed up everything came to a twisted and sad end. Chance said that he proceeded to wrap an HDMI cord around Rodger's neck to strangle her. Sakari then choked her out until she was unresponsive. Chance and Sakari then hid her body out in the desert somewhere in Las Vegas. The Arizona basketball alum admitted to the kidnapping and murdering of Rodgers recently.
