A North Carolina woman is behind bars for killing her onetime Green Beret husband and hiding his body, police in the Tar Heel State say.

Shana Cloud, 50, stands accused of one count each of murder in the first degree and concealment of a death over the slaying of Clinton “Clint” Bonnell, 50, who was initially reported missing in January.

On Jan. 28, both Bonnell’s school and a friend requested well-being checks on the U.S. Army veteran after he uncharacteristically failed to attend his physician assistant class at Methodist University that morning, according to the Cumberland County Sheriff’s Office.

“Upon Deputies arrival, they encountered Clinton Bonnell’s wife, Shana Cloud, who indicated she had not seen Bonnell since the day prior,” the sheriff’s office said in a press release. “Bonnell’s vehicle, along with his school book bag and other items, were located at the residence.”
