Wendy Edmond Green, 41, is being held without bond in the Wake County Jail on charges of first-degree murder in the death of her live-in boyfriend, 52-year-old David Reuben Green Jr.
Investigators had been looking for David Green since early September, when family members reported him missing. On Sept. 7, authorities conducted a search of the couple's Raleigh home but were unable to locate him, Wake County Sheriff's Office spokeswoman Phyllis Stephens said.
"They continued to investigate, and went back out there [Wednesday] to do another search," Stephens told AOL News. "[Investigators] were looking around, and they saw a freezer. They opened [it up], and there he was."
Wake County Sheriff Donnie Harrison told The News & Observer that investigators detected a "powerful smell" during their second search of the home. The power inside the home had been shut off in August.
On Thursday, authorities found found Wendy Green living at a home in nearby Robeson County. She was arrested and taken into custody without incident.
A preliminary autopsy by the state Medical Examiner's Office in Chapel Hill found that Green died of blunt-force trauma. Investigators suspect he was killed sometime in April. Authorities do not yet have a motive in the case. Stephens said.
Although the Greens were not married, police say Wendy Green had assumed her boyfriend's last name. The couple had two teen children, a daughter, Alexis, and a son, David Reuben Green III.
Alexis Green, 17, has been incarcerated at the Wake County Jail since Sept. 16 on multiple charges, including contempt of court and failure to appear, stemming from a July arrest on burglary charges, WRAL-TV in Raleigh reported.
Stephens said 15-year-old David Green III is missing and investigators are concerned about his safety.
"We do not have a photograph of him, but I wish we did," Stephens said. "We may find one as we continue our investigation, but we would like to know if anybody knows of his whereabouts. Is he safe? We would like to know that."

"He who can, does. He who cannot, teaches."
"Being is substance and life; life manifests by movement; movement is perpetuated by equilibrium; equilibrium is therefore the law of immortality.
"The doctrine of equality!... But there exists no more poisonous poison: for it seems to be preached by justice itself, while it is the end of justice.... "Equality for equals, inequality for unequals" that would be the true voice of justice: and, what follows from it, "Never make equal what is unequal."
