Cynthia Arnold, a white woman, was murdered on September 25, 2018, in Linden, Texas, one of two victims alongside Donnie Combs in what became a grisly double homicide. According to an eyewitness account, the three were staying about a week at a rural Cass County property with no electricity or running water and were using methamphetamine. The eyewitness described Kevin Dewayne Shepard Jr. shooting Arnold in the head while she rested in her truck, then shooting Combs as he tried to flee.

The eyewitness said Shepard burned the bodies in a large fire pit on the property, adding tires and trash to destroy evidence, and later forced the witness to drive with him to a county road where he set Arnold’s truck on fire; the burned vehicle was later found in Marion County. Forensic testing at the FBI lab in Quantico identified human bone fragments from the fire pit. A jury convicted Shepard of capital murder and he was sentenced to life without parole.

Does anyone have knowledge of the property, the weeks before September 25, 2018, or the people who spent time there?
