A suspect in the case, 44-year-old Michael Williams, later turned himself in. Following his death, Simmons mourned the loss of her ex-fiancé, writing, “Thank you for leaving behind my greatest gift. I’m hurting. I’m numb. Thank you for the outpouring of love everyone. I cant believe I’m even saying Rest In Peace Sutton. I promise to hold SJ down in every way I promise.”
