RALEIGH, NORTH CAROLINA (BNO NEWS) – A Wake County, North Carolina woman was arrested on Friday after police officers found the body of her missing boyfriend in a freezer at their Raleigh home.

Authorities arrested Wendy Edmond Green, 41, on charges of first-degree murder related to the murder of her live-in boyfriend, who police identified as 52-year-old David Reuben Green Jr. Green had been missing since early September when his relatives reported him missing.

Wendy Green was detained without incident at her new home in Robeson County on Friday where she was living with her two teenage children, which were the product of her long relationship with David Greene.

The arrest was a consequence of a second search conducted by authorities in Wendy's former residence in Raleigh. The first search on September 7 did not reveal anything suspicious. However, police officers noted a powerful smell which was not present during the first visit.

The law agents began looking around and eventually located the source of the strong smell, a freezer. Police officers opened it and found the body of David Green stuffed inside it. The discovery was possible due to the fact that the home's electricity was shut off in August, causing the body to decompose.

A preliminary autopsy revealed that David Green died from blunt-force trauma and the forensic team determined that he was killed around April. However, authorities do not have a motive in the case but expect that, after questioning Wendy Green, the events surrounding the murder will be clarified.

Another concern for Wake County authorities is the disappearance of Wendy's youngest child, 15-year-old David Green. Investigators are concerned about his safety.

Meanwhile, Wendy's daughter Alexis Green, 17, remains imprisoned at the Wake County Jail since September 16. She is detained on multiple charges including contempt of court and failure to appear after her arrest due to burglary.
