As Oklahoma authorities continue their investigation into the deaths of 27-year-old Veronica Butler and 39-year-old Jilian Kelley, an additional arrest was made on Wednesday.
The Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation (OSBI) confirmed in a press release that 31-year-old Paul Grice was arrested and booked into the Texas County Jail on two counts of first-degree murder, two counts of kidnapping, and one count of conspiracy to commit murder in the first degree.
Price’s arrest came after four additional suspects were previously arrested in connection to the deaths of Butler and Kelley, who disappeared without a trace on March 30.
Records showed that Butler was allowed supervised visits with her children.

Court documents revealed that the OSBI obtained a warrant to search Adams’ phone on April 1. Searches performed on the device allegedly included “taser pain level,” gun shops, prepaid cellular phones and “how to get someone out of [your] house.”
A search of local gun shops later showed that Adams had purchased five stun guns on March 23.
Fox News has reached out to the OSBI for comment.
