That same day, 33-year-old Shawn Bailey of Louisville was arrested after “confessing” via messages and a video appearing to show Robertson’s body—sent from accounts prosecutors now say were fake.Investigators later cleared Bailey using DNA evidence and identified the actual suspect as 34-year-old Nigel Thomas of Oxford, Ohio, also known as “Nati Bang.” Authorities say Thomas created the fake accounts to frame Bailey and was arrested Friday. Charges against Bailey were dropped, and he was released.Thomas is currently in custody in Ohio awaiting extradition.
