Wife Arrested After Husband Found Decapitated

Sangamon County Police have arrested Juatasha McCaster's in connection to killing her husband, 22-year-old Norman McCaster. Norman was missing his head, arms, and legs when he was discovered in rural Mechanicsburg late last month.

The McCasters were married for about two years. Williamson says neither had criminal records that he knew of, nor were they involved in the drug trade. McMaster is being held on charges of concealment of a homicidal death and obstruction of justice. No formal charges have yet been filed and more charges are expected. She's being held in the Sangamon County Jail on five-million dollars bond. Her first court appearance is scheduled for tomorrow afternoon at 3:00.
