The man charged with murdering <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/liza-fletcher" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Eliza Fletcher</a> is now facing additional charges of kidnapping and rape from a separate incident.
Cleotha Henderson, the 38-year-old <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/arrest-in-kidnapping-of-kindergarten-teacher-heiress-to-billion-dollar-fortune" target="_blank" rel="noopener">suspected</a> of murdering the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/memphis" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Memphis</a> mother of two, is facing “unrelated” charges of aggravated kidnapping and rape, a Memphis police official <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/us/eliza-fletcher-murder-suspect-slapped-unrelated-kidnapping-rape-charges">confirmed</a> to Fox News.
Henderson was indicted for the new charges on Thursday afternoon, which involve a reported sexual assault on September 21, 2021. In that case, a sexual assault kit was then given to the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation two days after the alleged incident.
&#8220;An official CODIS [national DNA database] hit was not received until after the unfortunate event that occurred on September 2, 2022,&#8221; a police spokesman <a href="https://www.yahoo.com/news/man-charged-death-eliza-fletcher-032511581.html">told</a> the Commercial Appeal, a Memphis based newspaper. &#8220;Probable cause to make a physical arrest of any suspect did not exist until after the CODIS hit had been received.&#8221;
Memphis police did not give any additional information on the new charges. Henderson also faces a first degree murder charge and especially aggravated kidnapping charge relating to the Fletcher kidnapping and murder.
Henderson has an <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/horrifying-criminal-record-of-eliza-fletchers-alleged-murderer-revealed-report">extensive criminial history</a> stretching back to when he was a teenager, and includes convictions for aggravated assault, rape, and kidnapping.
He served 20 years in prison for kidnapping a lawyer at gunpoint when he was 16 years old and forcing the lawyer to withdraw cash at multiple ATMs. Henderson also “committed a juvenile delinquent act of rape against an unnamed suspect when he was 14,” Fox News added.
Fletcher, whose abduction was captured on surveillance footage, was out for a dawn jog on Friday when the suspect allegedly grabbed her and forced her into a dark SUV. A married mother of two, Fletcher taught at St. Mary’s Episcopal School in Memphis.
She was the granddaughter of the late hardware wholesale tycoon Joseph Orgill III, founder of the privately-held Orgill Inc. The company has annual sales of more than $3 billion.
Her body was found about seven miles from the crime scene, where police on Friday found her water bottle and smashed cell phone.
Fletcher’s murder and kidnapping left many <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/family-of-heiress-teacher-eliza-fletcher-breaks-silence-after-body-confirmation">devastated</a> in the Memphis community.
“We are heartbroken and devastated by this senseless loss,” the family said in a statement. “Liza was such a joy to so many — her family, friends, colleagues, students, parents, members of her Second Presbyterian Church congregation, and everyone who knew her.”
