A juvenile suspect in the murder of Weatherford teenager JaRay Wilson has been charged as an adult.

According to court records, Cody Godfrey, 18, has been charged with accessory after the fact for his involvement in the murder of JaRay Wilson. Godfrey will be arraigned at 1:30 p.m. Monday at the Custer County Courthouse. He had a psychiatric evaluation on Friday.

Wilson went missing in October, 2012. In December 2013, her remains were found buried in a shallow grave about two miles north of Weatherford.

The Oklahoma Bureau of Narcotics received a tip from Godfrey that led them to Wilson's remains. Godfrey also led investigators to a suspect in the case, 19-year-old Tucker McGee. McGee has been charged with first-degree murder.

An OSBI agent testified the last people to see Wilson were Godfrey and McGee. The agent, Godfrey, and an archaeologist went to the scene, but it was too dark to find anything. So they went home and came back the next day, and that's when they found the skull.
