SEVIERVILLE (WATE) - A woman suspected in a triple homicide in Cocke County is back in custody in East Tennessee.

Marsha Gail Shelton, 29, was booked into the Sevier County Jail Wednesday night on a violation of probation charge.

Shelton and the other Cocke County homicide suspect, Adam Lawton Edwards, 43, were caught Tuesday in the Cherokee National Forest in North Carolina. Shelton was extradited from there to Sevier County, where she was wanted on the probation charge.

Investigators found three bodies after a house fire Saturday in Cocke County. They're believed to be the residents: Terri Henderson, her boyfriend Sherman Ellison, and their two-year-old son, Riley.

Their causes of death haven't been released.
