The former G-League player and girlfriend arrested in connection with the disappearance of a 23-year-old Washington medical assistant in Las Vegas have been charged with kidnapping and murder, according to police.

Chance Comanche, 27, was released from the Stockton Kings, a developmental affiliate of the Sacramento Kings, shortly after his arrest.

He played a G-League game in Henderson, Nevada, 15 miles from Las Vegas, the night before Marayna Rodgers was last seen and reported missing.

Rodgers vanished on Dec. 6, when she was on a trip to visit Las Vegas and got into a car with her friend, Sakari Harnden, 19, according to KLAS.

Based on the information obtained after Comanche and Harnden’s arrest detectives were able to recover human remains, later identified as Rodgers, in a desert area in Henderson, Nevada, police said in a press release.

According to police, it was determined that Harnden and Commanche were responsible for Rodgers’ death and both will be charged with open murder.

Harnden, the girlfriend of Comanche, was arrested in Las Vegas on Dec. 13 and booked into the downtown Las Vegas Jail, also on a first-degree kidnapping charge, KLAS reported, citing court records.

A criminal complaint accused Harnden of “detaining Rogers against her will and without her consent for the purpose of killing her and/or inflicting bodily harm,” according to the outlet.

Harnden was also arrested on a theft charge for allegedly stealing a Rolex.
