MEMPHIS, Tenn. — A Mississippi woman has been arrested months after a man was found dead inside a burned-up car in the Memphis Police Department’s impound lot.
Tameria Clark, 20, was booked in the Shelby County Jail Tuesday for arson, abuse of a corpse, and tampering with or fabricating evidence. Her bond is set at $500,000.

On July 20, first responders made the scene of a vehicle fire at Weaver Road and Tully Road in Southwest Memphis. When the fire was out, MPD investigators took photos and completed a police report, and then the car was taken to the city impound lot at 465 Kline Lane.
That same morning, the family of 20-year-old Jaderius Webb filed a missing person report with the Horn Lake Police Department. Two days later, Webb’s body was discovered inside the backseat of the vehicle.
Police developed Clark as a suspect and searched her home on Ramblewood Drive in Horn Lake, Mississippi, and said they had found a maroon GMC Terrain connected to the case.
