KERR COUNTY, Texas -- A man wanted for a murder that happened more than 18 years ago will finally face charges.

Jose Isaac DeLaFuente was picked up in Mexico. He is accused of killing his wife, Mirella DeLaFuente, in Kerr County back in March of 1991. Kerr County officials enlisted the help of the F.B.I. in the case back in 2005. The F.B.I. located DeLaFuente in Mexico in 2008.

DeLaFuente was recently picked up and was flown back to Texas Thursday. He was handed over to the Kerr County Sheriff's deputies and is now in Kerr County Jail.

His bond has been set at $500,000.
