HUNTSVILLE, Ala. (TCD) — Four people have been arrested on various charges after a 15-year-old disappeared in late September and was found dead last week.
A family member reported Ja’Marious Logan missing to the Huntsville Police Department on Sept. 27 and said he was last seen on the evening of Sept. 25 wearing gray sweatpants, a blue sweatshirt with yellow writing, and black and white Nike Jordan sneakers.
On Nov. 16, officials located human remains they are confident are those of Logan in Sylacauga. The U.S. Marshals Service’s Gulf Coast Regional Task Force pinpointed the main suspect, Latorrie Gaddis, and arrested him in Alexander City on a charge of capital murder. Huntsville Police said he already had a warrant out for his arrest for two counts of second-degree assault.
Huntsville Police also arrested 37-year-old Latoya Wells and 33-year-old Corie Wilson on kidnapping charges, as well as 34-year-old Deserea Pilar Cunningham for hindering prosecution. Cunningham is Gaddis’ wife.
In a press conference, Huntsville Police officials said the medical examiner still needs to conduct an autopsy, but officials are certain they found Logan’s body. There is also a strong likelihood of additional arrests. Logan and Gaddis reportedly knew each other.
WHNT-TV reports Logan’s found was found “badly decomposed” in a shallow grave close to an abandoned home.
Logan’s loved ones reportedly referred to him as June and he attended Lee High School, where he was a sophomore.
