He was arrested in a murder case in Mobile, Alabama.
Investigators believe the victim was Arletha Hopkins, the wife of the suspect, Anthony Hopkins. A woman’s body was found last night in a chest-type freezer at the couple’s home on Ryland Street. Police say the body was covered in a sheet. It appears to have been in the freezer for several years. Investigators say the discovery was finally made when the oldest child, who is 19, accused Anthony Hopkins of sexual abuse. The 19 year old told police about the body. There were six other children in the home. They have been taken into protective custody.
Investigators say Anthony Hopkins is a preacher. At the time of his arrest, Hopkins was found at a church in Jackson, Alabama, where a revival was taking place.
This will probably hurt his film career. I mean, a preacher? A revival? Hollywood won’t stand for that.
Hopkins is charged with murder and sodomy.
Well, maybe Hollywood can cut him a break after all.
