(WSB Radio)  An arrest has been made in the murder of a Newton County man whose body was found in a creek.

22 year old Pablo Maldonado, of Covington,  is in custody, charged in the killing of 55 year old Timothy Clements.  His body was dumped, police say, in Snapping Shoals Creek.

"Investigators with the Sheriff's Department and the GBI traveled to Anniston to interview him, then served him with the murder warrant," GBI spokesman John Bankhead tells WSB.

Newton County deputies will bring Maldonado back today. 

Investigators say the suspect and the victim worked together in landscaping, but there is still no word on what led to the killing.  The investigation is also trying to determine whether Maldonado acted alone.

And there's no word on how Clements died. His truck is still missing and investigators think it could have important clues.

What others are saying

  • take MY land, please
    A good white legal American? Native American Indian? All others need not apply.
  • Christian economics
    Yes Susan, it's just the bottom line dollar for everything. As Neal Boors crowd likes to say "there's no such thing as greed" or greed is good. See Wall Street and current economy. See Ayn Rant and rave, The Hannity-Rush-Boor and all there imitators know the cost of everything and the value of nothing. I got mine, FU.
  • Well said!
    Susan, another fine statement! Nobody listens to the white man until it is broke and needs to be repaired or completely recreated.

    Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?
  • White man murdered by non Whites and a mudshark
    The pictures for the perps show a black male, a male of indiscriminate race perhaps a hispanic of some kind, and what appears to be a White female who the paper says was the girlfriend of this Maldonado character. What a pity! Another White girl ends up wasting her life with a non White male, and now she's in jail on murder charges.
    I wonder how many White males will end up being killed in the coming years by the illegals and legal non Whites that they think are so great to hire 'cause they work so cheap?
    Remember White man: life is also cheap to these people. Yours and everyone else's. Does anyone even bother to think through anything anymore or is it just bottom line dollar for everything?
  • OMG
    i just saw the news and i know the girl who was involved in the crime and her name is britney and she went to my school. idk but just by looking at her all the time, i knew she was gonna end up in jail someday and there it goes,plus she's pregnant
  • Maybe...
    Or it could be a bad human killing another human. A Hispanic surname doesn't mean automatically illegal. You knew that right? Think: California, Texas, Arizona, etc.
  • Could it be???
    Is this yet another case of an illegal alien murdering a good, legal American??
