He was charged with kidnapping Kelley on Jan. 14 and further charged with arson for damage he did to Kelley's car, per police.
"While we desperately hoped for a different outcome, I'm grateful for the dogged determination of my deputies and our Texas Rangers in locating Ms. Kelley. As this is an ongoing homicide investigation, details outside what may be contained within an investigator's search or arrest affidavit will not yet be released," Collin County Sheriff Jim Skinner said.
