Shelby County Sheriff’s deputies were busy Christmas Day making an arrest in the case of Cleate Davis.
Deputies arrested 34-year-old Aleasha Cox after she confessed to her involvement in the robbery and death of Davis. Davis was found in his F-150 pick-up truck in the 7800 block of Mudville Road near Millington on Dec. 18. According to an affidavit, Davis had two gunshot wounds to his face when his burnt body was found in the truck.
