A North Carolina woman was charged with murder in connection to the gruesome killing of her former Green Beret husband earlier this year.
Shana Cloud, 50, faces first-degree murder and concealment of death charges in connection to the January death of 50-year-old Clinton “Clint” Bonnell.
Bonnell went missing on Jan. 28, the day after he met with a lawyer to start divorce proceedings, his girlfriend said.
“Upon deputies’ arrival, they encountered Clinton Bonnell’s wife, Shana Cloud, who indicated she had not seen Bonnell since the day prior,” the Cumberland County Sheriff’s Office said.
Then, on Feb. 25, a 911 caller reported spotting body parts in a pond about three miles from Bonnell’s home.
“It looks like there might be part of a body floating out in the water. I just got here about 10 minutes ago. [I was] just looking around and seen it.”
“It looks like it’s been there a while. There’s no legs or arms on it or nothing on it. It’s in the middle of nowhere.”
On March 28, authorities confirmed the remains belonged to Bonnell. Cloud was subsequently arrested.
