The Death of Cayley Mandadi

Timestamp

(11:33) Cayley's story

TW – domestic violence and sexual assault.

Cayley Mandadi’s family say she had blossomed into a beautiful young woman, inside and out. They have also said that her life was joyful, full of love, beauty, compassion and intelligence.

Cayley was 19 in 2017. She was attending Trinity University in San Antonio, Texas and she had recently started dating a man, Mark Howerton.

Mark was known to be abusive and violent. He had trashed Cayley’s dorm room at one point and her friends said they had seen bruises on Cayley.

Cayley and Mark went to a music festival in October 2017. Mark’s story was that the couple had left and sex in their car and that soon after, Cayley fell asleep. Mark continued driving to their destination and claims to have only noticed later that Cayley was not breathing.

He took Cayley to hospital where she died from blunt force trauma to the head, days later.

Mark went to trial twice for Cayley’s death. The prosecution argued that Mark had beaten Cayley brutally and caused injuries that caused her death.

In 2023, Mark was found guilty of aggravated assault causing serious bodily injury in relation to Cayley’s death and he was sentenced to twenty years in prison.

In this episode of the True Crime Society Podcast, we discuss the brutal death of Cayley Mandadi. Was justice served?
