I've received numerous tips about the strange and tragic story of the murder of Ohio mom Jennifer Nelson. The 29-year-old Nelson's murder in her Dayton-area home was discovered after a couple found Nelson's 4-year-old son William wandering a rest stop on I-70.

William knew his parents' names and his home address, and that was how his mother's body was discovered.

An arrest has been made in this convoluted case: 22-year-old Charlie Myers of Columbus. Myers has apparently confessed to his part in the crime. He faces a charge of aggravated murder.

There have been many twists and turns in this case.

Nearly two weeks before Jennifer Nelson was shot, she and husband Eddie went to a concert in Columbus. While they were there, the couple's Honda was stolen from a parking garage on the OSU campus. A good deal of info was apparently inside the vehicle that could have pointed a perceptive thief back to the Nelsons' home in Dayton.

And that's where the Honda was found after Jennifer Nelson was murdered -- close to the Nelson residence on Redder Avenue, just outside Dayton. At the time, one of the Nelsons' other cars was missing, a black Oldsmobile Alero.

The Alero was found near Charlie Myers's residence in Columbus.

Myers was arrested in the past for arson and contributing to the delinquency of a minor. If the photo aired by MSNBC was accurate, then Myers (or an exact lookalike) has several profiles on MySpace, with screen names like "pimp_deaf_boy" and "lil_pimp_myers." One of the profiles states that he attended the Ohio School for the Deaf and studied computers. On another page, Myers wrote that he was "hard of hearing" and the "real pimp Charlie Myers." Photos attached to all the pages show the same young man seen in a photo broadcast on cable news, frequently wearing a ballcap cocked at an angle, affecting a hard look, a middle finger sometimes raised to the camera.

Based on the portion of the police press conference about Myers's arrest broadcast on MSNBC, it seems like police believe they are not done with their investigation, in spite of Myers's supposed confession. That said, people always automatically suspect the husband in cases like this, and police have stated more than once that Eddie Nelson is not a suspect. Nelson currently has custody of his son and has taken time off from his multiple jobs to care for William.

**NOTE**

Readers are requesting links to Charlie's MySpace pages. Here ya go -- I hesitated because MSNBC was, at the time, the only source for his photo and if there was a chance it wasn't the same guy, I didn't want to link it. That's changed. So:

http://www.myspace.com/pimp_deaf_boy

http://www.myspace.com/lil_pimp_myers

http://www.myspace.com/love_betty_joe

There is a fourth site that has only photos of a young woman but is listed as owned by a 22-year-old male named Charlie Myers. I've left that off this list. Also, those intrepid net detectives at Websleuths.com turned up Charlie Myers's VampireFreaks.com account:
