A week after she vanished, her mother Lori Hill told
KFOR NewsChannel 4: 'Vivacious, outgoing, never met a stranger,' said Lori Hill in April. 'That's not a kid that's planning on running away. That's not a kid that doesn't want to be with her family. That's my Annie Jo.'
While she was missing, her mother also left a voice mail message on her phone which said: 'Anne, I hope that’s you, I love you and miss you.
'I’ll come get you wherever you are, just leave me a message or call your brothers, we all want you home. Anne, I hope it’s you.'
A search warrant was reportedly issued at an Oklahoma City apartment complex in connection with Hill's disappearance.
According to police, Thomas came to police headquarters Friday afternoon, was interviewed by investigators and subsequently arrested.
On Saturday morning, Raymond was arrested at his home in northwest Oklahoma City. The pair are both facing first-degree murder charges.
It comes after a break in the case last week, where private investigators were led to a pond by an anonymous tip.
The water was drained, however officials would not say whether something was found.
