Six months after the mother of his children died from what he claimed was a drug overdose, an Ohio man is behind bars, accused of allegedly beating the victim so severely, she was “internally decapitated.” A statement from Cincinnati Police confirms Mayzio Arnold, 25, was arrested and charged with murder on Wednesday. Investigators allege he caused the injuries that led to the death of 24-year-old Deandrea Funchess. She was found unresponsive on Feb. 15 in a Hartwell home.
