Deputies arrested Jacob Benjamin Wilson on charges of concealing a death and tampering with evidence. Investigators said Wilson helped clean up Parker’s murder scene and hide what happened on Langdale Chase.
Symone Boyd, David Barber, Brittany Baker and Mario Barber have been indicted on various charges in Parker’s death and are scheduled to appear in court next week.
Charles Parker, the victim’s father, previously told Channel 2’s Tom Jones that he wants everyone connected to his son’s death to pay.
“I hope they get them all,” he said.
