Cherokee County Authorities will be seeking Capital Murder charges against two suspects who have been charges with kidnapping in Calhoun County in connection to the death of 29 year old Wellborn Elementary Teacher Kevin Thompson.

Tyrone Thompson of Weaver and Nicholas Smith of Jacksonville are in custody in Calhoun County at this time on $100,000 cash bonds each.

According to Jacksonville Police Chief Tommy Thompson Cherokee County authorities plan to seek capital murder warrants Monday.

Tyrone Thompson has been in custody at the Anniston City Jail since Friday morning, after Anniston Police and Jacksonville Investigators arrested him up for allegedly using Kevin Thompson`s ATM card at various banks around Jacksonville and Anniston.

Police say that Smith was in custody at the Clayton County Jail in Georgia. It`s unclear if he knew 29-year-old Kevin Thompson.

Chief Thompson said investigators suspect Smith and Tyrone Thompson arrived at Kevin Thompson`s Jackson Trace apartment sometime late Wednesday evening.

A preliminary investigation indicates that Kevin Thompson was not immediately alarmed when the two suspects showed up and asked him to go for a ride with them, because he knew Tyrone Thompson from childhood.

Jacksonville police suspect Tyrone Thompson and Smith forced the Wellborn Elementary teacher to go with them to withdraw cash from banks in Anniston and Jacksonville.

After withdrawing an unknown amount of money from Kevin Thompson`s bank accounts, Smith and Tyrone Thompson drove – in the victim`s silver Honda Civic – to Cherokee County, where they allegedly killed Kevin Thompson.

Chief Thompson declined to release details about how Kevin Thompson died or whether weapons were used during his kidnapping.

Chief Thompson estimated that Kevin Thompson died sometime after midnight on Thursday morning.

After an hours-long search Friday evening, police found Kevin Thompson`s body alongside U.S. 278 in Cherokee County.
