Two missing people, both found deceased...

9/1/2012: I bring both sad and good news for you this morning. Jacob Wheeler (22/right) and Jessica Evans (17/left) of White County, Illinois have both been ▬►LOCATED DECEASED. Danny Coston (36/bottom) is being held in connection with their deaths on $3 million bond for two counts of first degree murder.

Article: An autopsy is scheduled for Saturday on the body of a Southern Illinois man found Friday night in a rural area of Wayne County.

White County Sheriff Doug Maier says it's believed 22-year-old Jacob Wheeler has been dead for six days.

Wheeler and 17-year-old Jessica Evans were reported missing Sunday after going camping and fishing near the Little Wabash River.

Evans' body was found Monday in the bed of Wheeler's truck.

Sheriff Maier says 36-year-old Danny Coston was arrested Friday afternoon and charged with two counts of first degree murder. He's being held in the White County Jail on a 3-million dollar bond.

Authorities say they discovered Friday that evidence from the crime scene indicated a second vehicle was involved. Deputies say parts from a vehicle which had been wrecked were matched to a vehicle belonging to Coston.

The sheriff's office says Coston was then taken in for questioning and confessed to murdering both Wheeler and Evans.

Maier is calling this a "random type situation" that turned into a horrible event.

The sheriff tells 14 News Coston knew Jacob's father, but not the victims.

Authorities say they believe they have a motive, but aren't releasing any details yet.

Maier says formal charges against Coston could come on Tuesday.

"We hope this brings some closure to the families of Jessica and Jacob," said Sheriff Maier. "Our thoughts are with them."
