Description
What started as a missing person's case turned into a cross-county investigation where a husband and wife were arrested and charged with the murders of two people after they were allegedly caught using a missing woman's credit card.
Lue'Quita Sclesky, 32, and Duane Sclesky, 38, were arrested after deputies from Hernando and Citrus counties connected them to the death of Jamie Lynn MacDonald who was reported missing by family members on May 12.
Hernando County Sheriff Al Neinhuis said MacDonald previously had an issue with a person and called law enforcement. While that person was ruled out as a suspect, they were associated with Lue'Quita, leading deputies to look into her.
They found that Lue'Quita and Duane were using MacDonald's bank information at an ATM. Law enforcement arrested the couple on fraud charges on June 14, and through their investigation and interviewing the suspects, they determined a need to look into "concerning areas" in the ground north of State Road 50 in Hernando County and excavated them.
