JONESBORO, Ark. (AP) _ A northeast Arkansas man has been jailed after
authorities accused him of a killing a woman, then posting a Facebook video in
which he talked about the crime.

Marco Deshon Clark was arrested on suspicion of capital murder for the death of
37-year-old Melinda Coburn, who was found shot to death and under a blanket in
her front yard Saturday. Court records show Coburn had been granted a protective
order against Clark less than a week earlier.

According to The Jonesboro Sun , deputy prosecutor Grant DeProw said Clark
seemed “almost gleeful” in a Facebook video posted after the death. Court
documents say a detective called Clark and talked to him until Clark decided to
turn himself in.
