John "Pat" Gutierrez, 38, is accused of beating Tate to death with a wrench, according to court documents. He was arrested last week. The killing happened in the early morning hours on Dec. 27 at an apartment on Musken Street.
Last week, police said they believed Gutierrez placed Tate's body in a dog kennel, drove to Jones County near Hawley, and buried it on a plot of land. The location of where Gutierrez allegedly took the body was reportedly described by a witness.

According to the affidavit, Gutierrez went to his ex-girlfriend's house and was enraged to find Tate with her at the house.
They believe she witnessed the killing and waited to come forward because she was afraid he would hurt or kill her if she told.
