Mark Everett (September 28, 1969 – December 23, 2008), born as Manuel Benitez, was a former American child actor in Hollywood films. He was a fugitive wanted by the FBI for the bludgeoning murder of his girlfriend in 2004. In 2008, he was shot and killed by police officers responding to a hostage situation in El Monte, California.
His girlfriend eventually found out about this and decided to end the relationship. On the night of June 20, 2004, Father’s Day, while she was asleep, Everett tried to leave with their son. She woke up and tried to stop him. Everett then allegedly picked up his dumbbell and beat her numerous times, killing her in front of their child.
Everett was an international fugitive. He was believed to be traveling with his son Benjamin and his mother Elizabeth Velasco until his death.
On December 23, 2008, Everett, who was featured on America’s Most Wanted, was killed in a hostage standoff at a Chinese restaurant in El Monte, California. He held his seven-year-old son hostage for two hours before being killed by police. His son was shot in the thigh, but is expected to survive
