A man has just been charged in connection to his pregnant girlfriend’s disappearance, who went missing after leaving college back in 2015.
Rochelle Thomas Stubblefield, 20, was a student at Calumet College of Saint Joseph in Hammond, Indiana, and on Nov. 10, 2015, she left class and was reported missing two days later. The Times of Northwest Indiana cites that police believe her boyfriend, #DerronFuller, murdered her that same day.
The Kentucky man was charged with two counts of murder in connection with the deaths of Stubblefield and her unborn child. PEOPLE reports that he was also charged with obstruction of justice. Fuller was arrested earlier this month and extradited to Indiana. He is currently being held without bond, and during a hearing this week, a judge entered a not guilty plea on Fuller’s behalf.
Stubblefield’s body has yet to be found; her family says that her unborn child was to be named Amir Dashaun Thomas Stubblefield. In 2015, police spoke to Fuller, and he claimed that the two were not together, and the child was not his. During their search for the soon-to-be mother, police found her car abandoned in Gary. They also found Stubblefield’s glasses – which were broken – and her red and black shoes in the area. Reports show that a woman who Fuller was involved with in late 2015 was interviewed by detectives last summer. PEOPLE reports the woman allegedly told cops that Fuller admitted to killing Stubblefield.
No motive for her killing has been recorded. However, police believe she was strangled to death and stabbed in the head. The young woman was studying criminal justice and had law enforcement aspirations.
