'Bout time!

I bet she thought she was in the clear after over a year. Ha!

Hallelujah! This case was so obvious to me, specifically the way she up and left town immediately after his funeral.

Big time doctor, small town, out of sight out of mind. Looks like her clever planning couldn't outfox the legal eagles.

Woohoo! It's about time!

Have they arrested her yet? I don't see any update with that. I wonder if she has taken off.

Just saw on Kimberly King (WLOS reporter) that clerk confirms order for her arrest

Magistrate's office says it's likely she'll be jailed without bond

Buddy McCutcheon was under investigation for embezzlement at the time of his death, according to court records. The North Carolina Department of Revenue asked for payroll records and income tax returns from McCutcheon and his wife five days before the shooting.

How does secured bond work? How much would she need to pay to be released?
