Jennifer Brown murder: Business partner arrested in death of missing Pennsylvania mom

ROYERSFORD, Pennsylvania --

During a news conference Thursday, District Attorney Kevin Steele said investigators believe Watts killed Brown, 43, and tried to cover his tracks before reporting her missing on Jan. 4.Steele said pieces of a broken hair clip were found in Brown's home and in her shallow grave, leading investigators to believe Brown was killed in her home.

The investigation began after Watts reported Brown missing on Jan. 4, saying she never arrived to get her 8-year-old son off the school bus that afternoon. According to investigators, Watts picked up Brown's son from the bus stop on Jan. 3, telling the child that his mom was at the grocery store and he was going to sleep over.

During the investigation, a cadaver dog indicated human remains were in the backseat of both Watts' car and his wife's car.Steele said Watts and Brown went into a joint business venture to invest money into Watt's proposed restaurant, "Birdies Kitchen."Detectives say that, on the afternoon of Jan. 3, two cash transfers were made to accounts that Watts controlled. One was for $9,000 and a second was for $8,000.
