Anthony Joel Castleman was arrested by U.S. Marshalls in Georgia. The HCSD advised that family has been notified and further details are forthcoming.

According to court documents, a warrant was issued for Castleman’s arrest on Nov. 12 after officers responded to a welfare check for Eubank and found her body hidden next to a barn on the property.

A $1,000 reward was offered on Nov. 21 after Castleman had not been located by law enforcement. Billboards with photos of his face were also placed throughout the state.

The News-Banner will continue to follow this case for updates on Castleman’s extradition to Indiana.
