Police have arrested a suspect in the killing of a 16-year-old cheerleader who was found dead by her mother in her bathtub earlier this week in Edna, Texas.

The Edna Police Department located the suspect, identified as Rafael Romero, on Saturday in Schulenburg, Texas.

The Texas Rangers, who investigate major violent crime as part of the state’s Department of Public Safety, arrested Romero for capital murder — which makes the suspect eligible for the death penalty if convicted — and took him to the Jackson County Jail.

      “should”, so no. It is only deleted if it misrepresents. Editing the title here makes sense and is allowed.

        If you allow an edit here, than I can argue my edit is a correction as well even though it’s misleading and biased.

        It’s a slippery slope and there’s a reason it’s a rule in most places that want proper news discussions.
