‘If I die, it was Greg!’ These are the last words a missing Massachusetts woman sent her sister earlier this month just before the pregnant 18 year old went missing as the woman’s 22 year old boyfriend now faces murder charges in her disappearance after her body was located Tuesday night.

Gregory Groom, 22, was arrested on Tuesday, in connection with Kylie Monteiro‘s disappearance after investigators said they located her body in Rehoboth.

Groom was initially charged with aggravated assault, battery on a pregnant person, domestic assault and battery, and intimidation of a witness in connection with an incident with Monteiro on August 7. Groom will now be charged with Monteiro’s murder Wednesday, according to Bristol County District Attorney Thomas Quinn, CBS News reported.

A fight between a boyfriend and a girlfriend results in a woman's stabbing death.

Quinn stated that after a thorough search, officers discovered a body on the Groom family's farm in Rehoboth, where Monteiro was last seen on August 6th. They're waiting for confirmation from the medical examiner that it's Monteiro.

Investigators said they discovered her remains in a cemetery dug on the property where Groom lives with his grandparents on County Street in Rehoboth, WCVB reported.

The prosecution informed the court that Monteiro's body was discovered roughly 20 yards from the shed where the fight took place and 5 feet underground.
Kylie’s sister, Faith Montiero, said that Groom’s family owns about 26 acres of woods, much of it undeveloped, CBS News reported.

Monteiro’s family said she told them she feared for her safety shortly before her disappearance.

Police say Groom was the last person to see Monteiro alive with Groom reporting her missing on August 8th.
