Two Charged in Hobbs Woman's Death
Associated Press
HOBBS Two people face charges of murder, false imprisonment and tampering with evidence in the death of a woman in Hobbs.
Thirty-four-year-old Billy Maples of Carlsbad and 31-year-old Kaci Easter of Hobbs were arrested in the death of the woman Monday afternoon.
Hobbs Police Chief J.D. Sanders calls it a very suspicious death.
Police had not released the victim's name as of today.
Maples was arrested without incident after a standoff Monday with a SWAT team at the home where the body was found.
Maples and Easter were being held on $1 million bonds.
