A significant breakthrough occurs in the 1986 Shondra May cold case as Scott County Sheriff's Department arrests 63-year-old Rubin Weeks on charges of kidnapping, rape, and murder.

• Original suspect Rubin Weeks arrested Tuesday morning at an RV park in Madison County

• Weeks previously convicted in 1991 for similarly kidnapping and raping a Missouri motel clerk

• Both cases show striking similarities: victims were taken from cars, restrained with poultry tape, and sexually assaulted

• Three eyewitnesses have reportedly come forward with crucial information

• Weeks had previously served multiple sentences in Mississippi for breaking and entering, forgery, and burglary

• Sheriff Mike Lee fulfills his promise to solve the case, bringing relief to Chandra's brother and cousin

• Cold case was broken by "networking and finding people willing to talk"

If you have any information about this case, please contact the Scott County Sheriff's Office or message the Shondra May Murder Investigation Facebook page monitored by cold case investigators.
