Fluvanna prison nurse charged in brutal murder of husband, Green Beret
- Shana Cloud, 50, was arrested on Friday by the Cumberland County Sheriff's Office and charged with first-degree murder and concealment of death in connection to the death of her 50-year-old former Green Beret husband, Clinton Bonnell.
- Bonnell, a retired Green Beret and Methodist University student, was reported missing on January 28 after failing to show up for class, prompting a wellness check and subsequent investigation.
- Cloud initially told deputies she hadn't seen Bonnell since the night before his disappearance, but investigators executed multiple search warrants on Cloud's property, vehicles, and digital devices in the weeks leading up to her arrest, developing a timeline of events.
- Bonnell was reportedly planning to divorce Cloud and had told his girlfriend, Kelli Edwards, about his intentions, with search warrants revealing he texted her on the night of January 27, and authorities later found Bonnell's body in a rural pond approximately three miles from the couple's home on February 25, although DNA confirmation wasn't received until March 28.
- The remains of Bonnell were found without limbs, and the District Attorney's office confirmed that Bonnell's head is still missing, while Cloud is being held without bond and is scheduled to appear in court, facing potential capital punishment as the investigation continues to uncover new details.
