"With the arrest of Steve Pankey for the murder of Jonelle Matthews, some of these questions are starting to be answered," he said.Jonelle died from a gunshot wound to her forehead, and Pankey is accused of shooting her during the course of the kidnapping, according to Weld County District Attorney Michael Rourke and the indictment.
Pankey, who twice ran for governor of Idaho in the past in what were described as long-shot bids, was being held at the Ada County, Idaho, jail with no bail, Rourke said. Among other evidence considered by the grand jury in returning an indictment against Pankey was that his now ex-wife said that trip started on Dec. 22, 1984, two days after Jonelle went missing, and that the trip was unexpected, according to the indictment.
