Cops: Suspect Admits To Abduction, Murder


Brazoria County, Texas law enforcement officials say 21-year-old Nicholas Michael Edwin Jean has confessed to kidnapping and killing 37-year-old Susana De Jesus.

Cops say it was Jean himself who led them to a body inside the trailer of an 18-wheel truck in the early morning hours of March 10, 2009.

Houston officials have confirmed the body is that of Susana De Jesus.

Jean's arrest came after cops in Pearland, Texas responded to an attempted carjacking call on March 9, 2009.

Once Jean was in custody, cops questioned him about Susana's disappearance until he finally led them to the body.

Cops believe that the motive behind Susana's kidnapping and murder was money, a random attack on a stranger driving a luxury car.
