The disappearance and subsequent murder of a Renton, Washington mother of 3 has horrified the Pacific North West, as more details begin to emerge about the victim, Ingrid Lyne and the suspect, John Robert Charlton.
What We Know So Far

The victim, Ingrid Lyne (40) was a nurse at Swedish Hospital and the recently divorced mother of three girls.
She and her children lived in a private home in Renton, Washington.
Ingrid was a sports fan! In particular, she loved the Seattle Sea Hawks and the Mariners Base Ball Team.
Ingrid (yogagirliml1975) and the suspect, Charlton (joncharlz) met on Plenty of Fish dating site in February of 2016 and began dating.
Some sources on various talk radio programs say that Charlton knew where she lived and had been a guest in her home for dinner in the weeks before her murder. This has not been verified to be true.
Friday, April 8, 2016
Ingrid was seen retrieving her mail from her mail box on the afternoon of Friday, April 8, 2016 by a neighbor.
Early Friday evening, she was last seen leaving her residence in her grey 2015 Toyota Highlander (AUW3230) in route to meet Charlton for a date to attend the opening home game of the Mariners and Oakland A’s at Safeco field. (It is not clear, yet, when and where they met before attending the game. )
The game between the Mariners and Oakland A’s began at 7:10 pm.
Ingrid was seen at the game by a friend/acquaintance,with Charlton, at the game.
A friend who attended the game told me that the game ended at approximately 10:50 pm.
According to friends, she was last heard from at 11:30 pm.
Saturday, April 1, 2016
At approximately 10:00 am, Ingrid’s ex-husband, Phillip Lyne, who had their three girls for the previous night, attempted to call her to make arrangements to drop the girls off with her at her home. He was unable to reach her. By all accounts, this was very unlike her and set off alarm bells with her friends and family that something was very wrong. A missing person report was filed at 10:10 am.
According to family and friends, attempts were made to reach John Charlton by phone and text, but he did not respond to any inquiries regarding the whereabouts of Ingrid.
At 10:21 am, on April 9, 2016, the morning after his date with Ingrid and her disappearance, John Charlton updated his educational information on his Facebook page to reflect that he “Started School at ALL OF them”.
If you click on the link of the “ALL OF Them” it takes you to the schools location, which is in Rawalpindi, Pakistan. This is the same city in Pakistan where Osama Bin Laden hid for a period of years and was subsequently killed. It appears that he created the “ALL OF Them” school link at the same time he updated his educational information on Facebook.
Was Charlton referring to Pakistan or did “All of them” have another meaning? It may be nothing. However, I find it interesting that he would chose the morning after this horrific crime to put this update on his Facebook page and make it public. It is worth noting.
Law Enforcement is notified and an investigation into the whereabouts of both, Ingrid Lyne and John Charlton begins.
Law Enforcement descends on Ingrid’s home and kick in the locked door to discover that her purse and cell phone are inside the residence.
Her 2015 Toyota Highlander (AUW3230) is missing from her driveway.
According to SPD Blotter, at 4:00 pm, 2.7 miles from Safeco field, a home owner at 1609 21st Ave and Pine St in Seattle returned home from a funeral and went to retrieve his recycle bin from the curb after the regular Friday recyclables pick up.
Upon retrieving his recycle bin, the home owner noticed that it was heavier then it should be. He opened the bin to discover three white kitchen size garbage bags containing “fresh” body parts, including a foot and head, of a female. The parts were dumped in the recycling bin either late on April 8 or early on April 9. (Clearly, whoever killed Ingrid Lyne, wanted their “handy work” to be discovered and the identity of his victim to be easily found out. )
They were tentatively identified as those of Ingrid Lyne by the King County Medical examiner on Monday. The King County Medical Examiner’s Office will officially confirm the victim’s identity after performing an autopsy.
Monday morning, John Charlton allegedly tracked to a “drug house” in Lake Stevens at the East Highland Estates by members of King County Law Enforcement and the U.S. Marshall Service.
According to one Facebook poster, her friend lives in the vicinity of the alleged drug house.
“He’s been staying there a while… my friend lives a couple doors down and recognized him. He may not own property there but he’s renting there”.
According to another Facebook poster who lives in close proximity to the Highland Estates residence,
That guy always had bags of garbage in his truck. ALL the time
He was detained with out incident, arrested on “investigation of homicide” and booked into the King County Jail.

At 11:00 pm on Monday, April 11, 2016, Ingrid’s vehicle was located, according to Kiro7 News.
John Robert Charlton: What We Know So Far
John Charlton Facebook page states that he is “Self Employed“.
The Seattle Times reports that he has a long criminal history going back to 1997 when he was booked for assault in King County in 1997. That same year he was found guilty of weed possession. In 2009, he was convicted for misdemeanor battery in Idaho and Theft out of Montana.
He has ties to Idaho, Wyoming, Montana, and Washington State. It appears that his criminal behavior expands all four states.
His parents live in Idaho. He has a sister that resides in Seattle.
Some radio talk show rumors are that Ingrid was aware of his criminal back ground and had even discussed it with her mother. This has not been confirmed to be true, but still worth noting.
New reports are emerging that Law Enforcement is looking into other “potential victims” and unsolved homicides in Washington and other states in their “Investigation of Homicide” regarding John Charlton.
One Facebook poster recounted her encounter with John Charlton a few weeks ago,
Omg! This guy approached me outside of Norms Market around a month ago trying to hit on me telling me I was pretty and I ignored him. When I went into the store he was standing by my car when I came out. Trying to talk to me again. Very creepy.Thank God I had my German Shepherd with me and he backed away when I opened my truck door.This is so very sad.
