Carissa Koch, 26, was arrested Wednesday. Koch is the wife of Matthew P. Burnett, 32, who has been charged with first-degree murder in the death of James Clifford Fernandez.
The body of Fernandez, 34, was found in a street in Westlake the morning of Aug. 17. Burnett told police that he dragged Fernandez into the street, hoping a passer-by would discover him.
Koch is suspected of attempting to clean up blood stains at the home after Fernandez’s death.
