Law enforcement said they got a tip from an associate of the two teenagers that included alleged social media messages between Miller and Goodale that revealed details like motive, plans and execution for killing Graber, according to a criminal complaint filed against Miller.

Graber had taught Spanish at Fairfield High School in Fairfield, Iowa, since 2012. According to online court documents, Graber was reported missing on Tuesday by family members.

Multiple law enforcement agencies reportedly started to search Chautauqua City Park, where Graber was known to take walks during the afternoon.

Officials found Graber’s body later Tuesday afternoon in the park "concealed under a tarp, wheelbarrow and railroad ties," according to the complaint.
