Sources confirm a man named Quinton Tellis will be publicly identified as a suspect in the murder of Jessica Chambers during Wednesday's press conference.

District Attorney John Champion and other Panola County investigators will hold a press conference Wednesday at 10:30 a.m. They said the press conference is related to the Jessica Chambers case, but did not say specifically what they plan to release at the press conference.

Sources tell WMC Action News 5 the press conference will announce that a grand jury indicted Tellis in Chambers' murder.

Tellis is in custody in Louisiana for other crimes. In November, he was identified as a suspect in the murder of a University of Louisiana-Monroe student. During that investigation, he was identified as possibly being connected to a murder in Mississippi.

Wednesday's press conference will start at 10:30 a.m. at the Panola County Sheriff's Department. WMC Action News 5 will be there to carry the announcement live on air and on WMCActionNews5.com.

Chambers was burned alive along a rural road in Courtland, Mississippi on December 6, 2014. Surveillance cameras at a nearby gas station recorded Chambers moments before her death.

In December, Panola County Sheriff Dennis Darby said his department had some 'promising' leads in the case.

Her problem was a fatal attraction to black boyfriends and of course these days means having sex, which can be highly charged and lead to bad and murderous outcomes.

Yes, the much maligned here “Sundance” kept this story alive on the internet when local police were more interested in letting it die. The Conservative Treehouse did a great job looking for evidence and suspects.

women from other countries need a crash course on where not to live, and who not to associate with for the most part.
