Formal charges have been filed against last month, the county’s district attorney’s office announced on Monday.
Joshua Thomas Bohl, 33, is being held on suspicion of first-degree murder and violation of a protection order.
Bohl’s girlfriend, Jayme Hosier, 29, was found by sheriff’s deputies on Nov. 4 at the Crestline Motel in the 7300 block of Brighton Road. Authorities were responding to reports of a dead woman when they found her body.
Authorities said initially her “cause and manner of death were not known.”
The county sheriff’s and coroner’s offices have not said how Hosier died, only that they have determined it to be a homicide.
Hosier’s two young children are now in the custody of her mother, Michelle Behrendt. Donations to help the children may be made at under Jayme Hosier’s name.
