Ogden • A suspect in a 2012 California homicide is now in jail after police started investigating him for a fraudulent purchase of just $3.
The Standard-Examiner reports 33-year-old Cody Tripp was booked Wednesday in the Weber County Jail and is being held without bail.
Authorities say Tripp is the main suspect in the killing of 29-year-old Jordan Vigil, who was found dead in Tripp's Castro Valley, California, home on May 14, 2012.
