On June 26, 2007 Anita Marshall, Mary's mother examined various pieces of jewelry that were found in a room at a residence on 15 1/2 Mile Road in Marshall, Michigan. Norrene Parker shared the residence with her former boy-friend, Chris Pratt.
Norrene and her children were not permitted in this room and it was known as Chris' "Game Room." There were some mounted animals on the walls, but most were obtained at flea markets and not actually hunted by Mr. Pratt.
In one of the drawers were large numers of keys and pieces of jewelery. One key was identified as a key to the home of Mary's brother, Mike. He had not lived at this home for several years. Believing that much of the jewelery was Mary's, Norrene Parker permitted it to be examined by the family. All the pieces were, in fact, articles owned and usually worn by Mary.
Included was her engagement ring.

Chris Pratt, Inmate, Bellamy Creek Correctional Facility in Ionia, Michigan.
Sentenced up to 15 years for crimes not related to the Mary Lands case.

March 12, 2009- 9:00 A.M.- Well this is not a good sign and obviously came on a sad day for the family, the 5th anniversary of Mary's disappearance. Chris Pratt was just moved from Level II at Mound Correctional Facility in Detroit to Cooper Street Correctional Facility in Jackson. He was reduced to the minimum standard of MDOC and reclassified as Level I. Next we will hear that because of prisons closing and staff reductions he will soon be released. Because his convictions were related to domestic violence he should not be eligible for parole until February 2012. You have to wonder if that criteria enacted by the Michigan legislature will be thrown out and he is looking at a release in the very near future? Norreen Parker, his most recent victim, better be concerned about these new developments.
March 12, 2009- 5:00 P.M.- Thank you to all the good people who today called MDOC, the police and the media about Christopher Luke Pratt being transferred to Cooper Street CF in Jackson and a reduction of his Level II to Level I. It just shows the power of our community. Inmate Pratt will be shuffling off to another prison and his Level II status will be put back in place. Maybe if we are lucky it will be the UP for the rest of the winter.Thank you again to WOOD-TV8 and the viewers for all the calls. It really gave some relief to Mary's parents to know we all will be safer. Kudos to our community to keep this alleged killer in a more secure location. In my opinion, I believe he killed Mary Lands and so does the law enforcement community. Chris Pratt needs to remain in prison for the rest of his life unless he makes a deal and tells the truth. It better be soon because some other perp is going to drop a dime on him first.
Update- March 13, 2009- 7:45 A.M- Within 24 hours of MDOC learning that Christopher Luke Pratt is an inmate who is a suspect in an open homicide investigation his classification was changed back to a Level II. Cooper Street Correctional Facility in Jackson is a Level I facility so we presume he will be transferred to a Level II correctional facility.
There is a saying that the wheels of justice turn slow, but grind exceedingly fine.
Chris Pratt, you can try to use your sociopathic charm on prison officials, family and friends to believe that all this is going to go away and you will soon be free. In your deluded thinking you feel no remorse or empathy, but that is just another symptom of your mental defects.
People know what you did to Mary Lands and one day you will allocute in a court of law and be held accountable for Marys disappearance and death.
You have seen our billboards and efforts to find Mary. Your earliest possible parole date is February 24, 2012. Let me assure you that we presently have at least 220 individuals who will be writing the Parole Board to ask that you not be released until your scheduled discharge date in 2022. By the time of your review in 2011 we will have at least 1,000 letters sent to Lansing opposing any release.
We are not going away, and we will bring Mary home.
