TUCSON, Ariz. — Closing arguments ended late Wednesday and the case formally went to the jury just before 5 p.m.
Christopher Clements became a suspect in 2017 when he told the FBI he could lead investigators to Isabel Celis' remains in return for having unrelated charges dropped. Jurors have not been allowed to hear any information related to the Maribel Gonzalez case and Clements’ conviction. Prosecution witnesses also said they discovered evidence on Clement's electronic devices that after Isabel Celis disappeared, Clements searched the internet for information on “body found in desert,” “trace evidence on body,” and “Isabel Celis sexy.”
