The sheriff’s office is now announcing the arrest of Anderson’s brother, Cedarius Glaze, who they say played a “key role” in helping get rid of Roberson’s body. They did not comment on how he helped dispose of the body.
He is being charged with tampering with evidence, concealment of a dead body and arson.
Investigators found Roberson’s car abandoned in south Fulton County, nearly 30 miles from where she disappeared. It had been burned from the inside out. Investigators have not clarified if Glaze’s arson charge is related to the car being burned.
