Grand Junction - A Grand Junction man wanted for the shooting death of Ft. Campbell soldier Vincent Goslyn killed on Fidelio Road in Christian County, KY, Friday night has been arrested in Mesa County.

According to the Mesa County Sheriff's Office, Jarred Tabor Long, 24, of Grand Junction was arrested early Sunday morning after a routine traffic stop in the North Avenue Walmart parking lot.

He had a murder warrant issued for him by Christian County, based on information given regarding his involvement during the interview with Jessie L. Goslyn late Saturday night. Long will be facing the charge of murder, along with his accomplice, Jessie L. Goslyn, whom Christian County officials charged Sunday.

In a news release sent to NewsChannel 5 Sunday, Christian County Sheriff’s investigators said they arrested the victim’s wife, Jessie Lucille Goslyn, 25, of Ft. Campbell, KY, charging her with murder. This arrest came after authorities from the Sheriff’s Department and the criminal investigations division on Ft. Campbell interviewed Jessie Goslyn and determined her involvement with another suspect in the murder of her husband. Jessie Goslyn was transported to the Christian County Jail where she is being held on a $500,000 cash bond and a warrant is outstanding for her accomplice, whose name is being withheld until his arrest.

Unfortunately, the victim and his wife (now suspect) do have children. Four kids all under the age of 10. It is a horrible situation all they way around.
