The couple was arrested in 2009 for allegedly hiding the girl's body when they lived near Bokchito and later transporting them to Montana and Oregon. Cheyenne's remains were recovered from a storage facility in Oregon.

Court records show Abel Wolf told the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation that in April 2008, Cheyenne seemed incoherent and, the next day, his wife said she had died.

Wolf's attorney, Jeff Clark, didn't immediately return a call seeking comment Wednesday.
