Dartmouth, Mass., woman, Desiree Tedder, has been arrested in the death of a man in Pensacola, Fla. Tedder has been charged with second-degree murder.

Mims was reported missing back on March 29 and his discovery is the work of a multi-agency search including the Pensacola Police Department, Florida Department of Law Enforcement, the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office and the Florida State Attorney’s Office.
State Attorney Bill Eddins says the murder is not a threat to the Warrington community and it was a specific targeting of Mims.
She is expected to appear before a judge today for an extradition hearing. If she waives her right, she will be transported back to Florida in the coming days. If not, it could be weeks before Tedder is transported back to Florida.
