Brown County, WI -- We expect to learn more details Friday about the suspect arrested in a Bellevue murder case. 

38-year-old George Burch from Virginia is the only suspect in the killing of Nicole Vanderheyden, a mother of three, found beaten to death in May. 

Investigators said they have obtained evidence that can place him on South Broadway where Vanderheyden was last seen. They said there's also forensic evidence putting him at the location of the homicide. 

Officials plan to present Burch with formal charges on Friday, September 16. 

The Brown County Sheriff's Department is holding a press conference to release more information.
