CONSTANTINE, Mich. (April 21, 2014) — A Constantine man was arrested and arraigned over the weekend in the cold case investigation into the murder in 2007 of Jodi Parrack.

On November 8, 2007, Parrack’s body was found in a local cemetery after she disappeared while walking home from a friend’s house. She was 11 years old at the time.

Raymond Emmett McCann, 46, was arrested on a perjury warrant from the St. Joseph County prosecutor’s office. He was arraigned on April 19.
