John Frank Henry Jr., 31, was brought to the Mercer County Jail Wednesday afternoon after being arrested in Columbus on November 16.
Henry Jr. is a suspect in the murder of 40-year-old Joseph Detello, whose body was found on November 4 along Young Road in Slippery Rock Township, Lawrence County.
The body was discovered by a passer-by who thought Detello was having car trouble.
The coroner later determined that Detello died as a result of asphyxiation.
