A Florida man stabbed his girlfriend, Instagram influencer Beauty Katera Couch, to death and then ditched her body in a wooded area near Atlanta before torching her car, a newly-released probable cause arrest affidavit obtained by Law&Crime said.

Eugene Louis-Jocques used a “sharp force instrument to inflict multiple wounds on the upper torso area” of Couch’s body, according to the affidavit. Louis-Jocques is facing charges of first-degree murder, arson and aggravated assault. He was arrested in Louisiana on Aug. 25 and extradited to Cobb County, Georgia, on Friday. A judge denied him bond on Saturday during a first appearance, court records show.

As Law&Crime previously reported, the investigation began around 12:18 p.m. Aug. 24 when Austell, Georgia, firefighters were called for a brush fire. When they arrived, they found a vehicle fully engulfed in flames. They put out the fire and the car was taken to a wrecker yard. Austell police went to the home where the vehicle was registered, and they learned the owner’s daughter, Couch, 22, had not been seen since the day before, Cobb County Police said in a press release. She was the person who most used the vehicle.

Austell police searched the area near where the fire took place and found Couch’s body near the wood line.
