Father And Son Arrested, Charged In 2018 Homicides Of Two Cookeville Residents

A father and son are facing felony charges in connection to the 2018 murders of two Cookeville residents.

60-year-old Robert Cravens and 36-year-old Ryan Bo Cravens were arrested and charged with two counts each of First-Degree Murder and Abuse of a Corpse.

An investigation by the TBI  into the murders of 46-year-old Henry Wilson and 44-year-old Kristie Wilson connected investigators to the father and son after human remains were recovered in a remote area of Overton County this past October, believed to be those of Henry and Kristie Wilson. In late September 2018, authorities located a vehicle belonging to Kristie Wilson off an embankment in Fentress County, but did not find any sign of the missing individuals. The family initially reported the two missing in May of 2018.

Robert Cravens and Ryan Bo Cravens are currently booked into the Overton County Jail where they currently remain in custody without bond.
