Officials say a woman from North Carolina is accused of killing her husband, who was a Green Beret, and hiding his death.

North Carolina authorities have arrested a retired Green Beret’s wife in connection with his disappearance and murder.

Shana Cloud faces charges of first-degree murder and concealment of death following the discovery of her husband, Clinton Bonnell, in a body of water in Fayetteville. The Cumberland County Sheriff’s Office revealed that authorities located Bonnell after receiving a phone call regarding human remains.

Clinton Bonnell, aged 50, had been reported missing since January 28, when an employee from Methodist University raised concerns about his well-being at a residence in Fayetteville.

The former Green Beret had been attending the university’s physician assistant program and “failed to attend class” on the morning of Jan. 28.

Methodist University President Stanley T. Wearden also issued a statement on March 29, saying he has “no words to heal your broken hearts.”

In a statement, Wearden expressed condolences and support, urging individuals to show compassion and seek assistance from faculty and staff during this difficult period of mourning.

He requested members of the community to “keep Clint’s family/friends/classmates in your thoughts, respect their privacy, be mindful of comments on social media, and continue to take care of yourselves and all fellow Monarchs.”

A GoFundMe that was created to help search for Bonnell when he was still considered missing says he served in the Army over a 20-year span and worked as a Green Beret medic.
