James Andrew McGann has been arrested in connection with the murders of a couple on a hike in Arkansas’ Devil’s Den State Park over the weekend.
Clinton David Brink, 43, and Cristen Amanda Brink, 41, were found dead on Saturday while hiking with their two daughters. The daughters, aged seven and nine, were unharmed.
McGann, 28, was taken into custody at 4.57 p.m. on Wednesday at a business in Springdale, Arkansas. He has been charged with two counts of capital murder, according to the Arkansas Department of Public Safety.
Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders said in a statement: “No news can heal the enormous harm done to the Brink family in last weekend’s crime, but this announcement is a comfort and reassurance for our State. I am so proud of the Arkansas State Police, Park Rangers, local law enforcement, and others who have worked nonstop since last weekend to capture this suspect.
“I ask that Arkansans lift up prayers of thanks for the brave men and women of law enforcement – and offer prayers of condolence to the victims of this horrific crime. Let there be no mistake – we do not tolerate violent crime in Arkansas. If you target innocent people, law enforcement will hunt you down and bring you to justice.”
