UPDATE: When Pastor William "Bill" Schonemann was found dead in his bed, posed with his hands pinned to the wall as if crucified, there was little information to go on and at the time we covered the story, no arrest had been made.

Joseph Scott Morgan and Dave Mack update the story with the arrest of 52-year-old Adam Sheafe.
