Patrick Frazee, Berreth's fiancé and the father of her baby daughter, was arrested Friday and charged with first-degree murder and solicitation to commit first-degree murder, police said.
Details of what led police to arrest Frazee have not been disclosed. Affidavits in the case were sealed by the court, prosecutors said.
Frazee told police that he met up Berreth on Thanksgiving Day to pick up their daughter.
Berreth's mother, Cheryl Berreth, reported her missing to the police on Dec. 2.
Police no longer believe Kelsey Berreth is alive, officials said. The crime may have occurred at her home, police said.
Woodland Park Police Chief Miles De Young said at a news conference Friday that additional arrests are possible.
Under Colorado's solicitation statute, a suspect would have not only discussed the commission of a crime with a second person but would have taken steps to see it through, according to District Attorney Dan May of Colorado's 4th Judicial District.
