The three had been identified in an apparent triple homicide under investigation by the Milwaukee County Medical Examiner’s Office, Milwaukee Police Chief Alonso Morales said at a press conference Sunday.

Arzel Ivery, the girls’ 25-year-old father, had been tracked to Memphis, where he directed officers to a Milwaukee garage where all three bodies were, Morales said.Ivery has been arrested and charged with felony aggravated battery, but homicide charges are expected.

A day before she went missing, Banks and her family had buried her infant son after he died from health complications, according to WISN.

She and her sisters were supposed to get brunch the next morning, but she never showed up.

“She’s like, ‘Meka, don’t forget to come get me in the morning,'" her sister, Tameka Smith, told WISN. "I said: ‘I’ll come get you. I’ll come get you.' My sister, this not like her. She don’t run off, she don’t ignore people. No matter what she go through, she gonna reach out to me.”
