Suspect Confesses to Killing Fox News Editor

Police in Alexandria, Virginia say John Stremple III, 63, confessed to killing his neighbor, Joshua Cochran, 44, a video editor for Fox News Media. Cochran was reported missing after his mother could not reach him. Police say his body was found in a closet in Stremple's apartment. Stremple has been charged with second-degree murder.

Surveillance video showed Cochran had gone drinking with Stremple before he disappeared, according to investigators. NBC Washington reports Stremple is a registered sex offender, which raises a fair question for Alexandria: how did a man with that record end up living next door?

Our hearts go out to Cochran's mother, his colleagues, and everyone who knew him. Stremple will face the courts, and Cochran's family deserves the full truth.
