COBB COUNTY, Ga. - Authorities said they have found two bodies believed to be those of a missing Cobb County couple after a long search Monday.
During a press conference late Monday afternoon, Telfair County Sheriff Chris Steverson said the bodies of a man and woman matching their description were found a short ways away from the car belonging to the couple. They said that car was found submerged in a lake.
"My heart goes out to the Runion family. We've done everything we possibly could do to get this family found, get their parents found, unfortunately it's a sad outcome, but hopefully there will be some closure knowing that they have been located," Sheriff Steverson said during a press conference Monday afternoon.

Lord, NO!
RIP. Shouldn’t be hard to track down the SOB who put the ad for the car on Craigslist.
Such an evil act that young man did. Arrest him!
They found him yesterday.
I was afraid there would be foul play the minute I heard that they were responding to a Craigslist ad.
The number-one suspect is in custody at this point. Traced the last call they made to a burner phone, and traced the phone to him.
The guy from Craigslist turned himself in earlier today.
My bet is the perp is a meth addict.
Whenever anything weird happens it's either because somebody was texting instead of paying attention to what they were doing, or because one of the participants had a brain fried by drugs.

It was the elderly couple that put the ad on craigslist looking for a 1966 mustang, the perp just answered it saying he had one, knowing the old man would have cash.
Normally only one guess is required.
The news stories on this have been disgustingly halfassed. Does this mean that they never made it to the place where they meant to buy the Mustang. That would mean there was no participation by the guy selling the Mustang? If the guy still had the Mustang money in his pocket then it would be just an unfortunate accident-—bad enough but not criminal on anybody elses part?
He looks a little bit like Bo Duke.
Quite a lot of detail here: http://www.13wmaz.com/story/news/local/2015/01/24/telfair-police-search-for-missing-cobb-county-couple/22276947/
The man arrested “comes from a good home.” Sounds a bit like he reeled the couple in and an accomplice killed them. But why?
I am so sorry to hear this. I was praying for a different outcome.
If it was my parents, he would have been very wise to turn himself in rather than coming into contact with the hands of my brothers.
I thought it was the victims who placed the ad, that they were looking for a 66 Mustang convertible. And the guy responded via throwaway cell phone. Looks like they arrested him. At least that’s how I read it in another earlier story.
Dare I ask the pigmentary persuasion of the murderer?
