Zephyrhills, Florida police chief David Shears called the case âunusual and complex,â according to the Tribune, which reported that authorities still do not have a motive for the killing. The paper reports that drug and money issues could be a factor.
Davis was already being held in a Land Oâ Lakes, Florida jail on a drug trafficking charge.
Davis and his wife, who is considered by police as a person of interest in the slaying, had been roommates of Perry. Krystal Carroll, who had a child with Perry, said that the writer wanted to kick them out.
Carroll told the paper that the murder charge gave her some feeling of closure to what has obviously been a terrible situation.
Perry wrote several episodes of the hit 80s cartoon Thundercats.
