DALE COUNTY:On June 3, 2020 the body of Jenita Maldonado was located in a wooded area off South County Road 20.  Based on the information available at the time her death was ruled a suicide. A short time later we noticed some inconsistencies in some of the developing information and continued to work it as a death investigation. Over the last 24 hours two suspects were developed and have since been charged with Murder.


I can’t stress enough how important it was for the public to come forward with different pieces of information that investigators were able to put together and bring justice for the victim.


Laura Lovequist  has been charged with Murder and is in the Dale County Jail awaiting her 1st appearance.


John Wayne Sutton has been charged with Murder and is currently in the Shelby County Jail on unrelated charges. He will be extradited back to Dale County and formally charged at a later date.


We would like to thank the Shelby County Sheriff’s Office for their assistance.
