Even though it had been reported earlier that the body found in the woods some 7 or 8 miles away from the car located in the lake was Jodi Sanderholm, it is now official. Also reported during our interview with Tim Miller of Texas Equusearch. The cause of death has not been released and most likely will not be done until formal charges are made in the death of Jodi Sanderholm.
“While there is a DNA test being conducted, we are confident this is Jodi Sanderholm,” Morrison said in a statement.
Morrison spokeswoman Ashley Anstaett said the delay in identifying Sanderholm was the result of authorities’ desire to be certain.
Sanderholm’s car was found Tuesday at the bottom of Cowley State Fishing Lake, and her body was found the same day, about eight miles away. The 84-acre lake on U.S. 166 is about 15 miles east of Arkansas City. (KSHB)
The family has planed a Memorial Service for Jodi Sanderholm:
The family has planned an 11 a.m. memorial service Tuesday. To accommodate the expected large crowds, it will be held at the W.S. Scott Auditorium at Cowley County Community College.

Three men have been arrested, Letalvis Cobbins, Lemaricus Davidson and George Thomas in connect with the brutal murders of 21 year old University of Tennessee student, Channon Christian and 23 year old Christopher Newsom. Police are saying that the couple was carjacked then murdered.
Officers call the deaths brutal slayings and say they came after the couple was carjacked.

A third man, George Thomas, was found with Cobbins in Kentucky. (Eye Witness News)
Letalvis Cobbins
The tragic murders of Christian and Newsom are just horrific.
Police say Newsom was shot and his body was burned when it was found. Officers said Christian was held for a couple of days and raped before she was killed.
Lemaricus Davidson
3 men in custody after Tennessee couple found dead
Federal agents and Knox County officers raided a house Thursday in Lebanon, Ky., about 180 miles north of Knoxville, where they believed the suspects had family.
Two men were detained, Letalvis Cobbins, 24, and a friend, George Thomas. Thomas was being questioned late Thursday, while Cobbins faced federal charges of being a felon in possession of a weapon, Knighten said.
Cobbins, wanted as a “person of interest” in the deaths, had a gun authorities believe may have been used in the crime, Knighten said.
Meanwhile, Cobbins’ brother Lemaricus Davidson, 25, was picked up at an empty house in Knoxville around 3:30 p.m. EST. Also considered a “person of interest” in the case, a weeping Davidson offered no resistance, Knoxville police spokesman Darrell DeBusk said.
Christian’s body was found Tuesday in a house rented by Davidson, authorities said. (WKRN)
Marshal: Man shot, burned; woman raped
How bad must the sexual assault have been that the Marshal would actually make a point to reference what these 3 animals did? What a senseless act of depravity. There is no punishment that is bad enough for these 3 suspects, if they are convicted of the crimes they appear to have committed.
“They did some really nasty things to this lady,” Knighten said.
Newsom was shot and his body burned, Knighten said. He said he didn’t know how Christian died. (KnoxNews)
UPDATE: 4th Suspect, Eric Boyd, Arrested in the Deaths of Christopher Newsom and Channon Christian
Knoxville police confirm that four men were charged Friday in the carjacking of Chris Newsom and Channon Christian.
Lemarcus Davidson, Latalvus Cobbins and George Thomas were charged with carjacking in federal court. A fourth man, identified as Eric Boyd, has been charged as an accessory after the fact. (WBIR)
