District Attorney John Champion and other Panola County investigators will hold a press conference Wednesday at 10:30 a.m. They said the press conference is related to the Jessica Chambers case, but did not say specifically what they plan to release at the press conference.
Sources tell WMC Action News 5 the press conference will announce that a grand jury indicted Tellis in Chambers' murder.
Tellis is in custody in Louisiana for other crimes. In November, he was identified as a suspect in the murder of a University of Louisiana-Monroe student. During that investigation, he was identified as possibly being connected to a murder in Mississippi.
Wednesday's press conference will start at 10:30 a.m. at the Panola County Sheriff's Department. WMC Action News 5 will be there to carry the announcement live on air and on WMCActionNews5.com.
Chambers was burned alive along a rural road in Courtland, Mississippi on December 6, 2014. Surveillance cameras at a nearby gas station recorded Chambers moments before her death.
In December, Panola County Sheriff Dennis Darby said his department had some 'promising' leads in the case.

More news from the Jackson MS newspaper:
Reverse the races and it’d be national news - cover of every paper.
What a horrible case. What is the link between them?
Amish behaving badly.
They lived near each other. There are (online rumor mill) discussions that she dated black guys and knew about their drug trade. She was trying to get out of the drug life and knew too much. This is how they shut her up.
Say WHAT? Must've been his good looks! I'll stop there.
Story where they arrested the gang. Perhaps one ratted him out:
Time to wipe off the dust to the gas chamber
Drug connection.
This is another black guy she dated who was cleared:
White girls are sold by the MSM that dating black guys is cool, edgy, stylish.
Some of the CTH’s best work-the Chambers case.
For awhile, there were daily posts. Lot’s of pix and analyses. Great evidence examination.
One person went and constructed a floral memorial at the site where she was burned alive.
Absolutely!
Damn shame that it's even allowed to get dusty.
Not to mention it hurts so good. Call it ‘Kardashianitis’.
That creep even looks evil
Definitely one of Bush’s sons. /sarc
Leading up to this arrest:
“The hunt for the killer of a 19-year-old Mississippi woman who was burned alive last year has resulted in the arrests of 17 suspected gang members, authorities said this week, though none have been directly linked to the woman’s death.
FBI officials announced the arrests Tuesday of suspected members of the Black Gangster Disciples, Vice Lords, and Sipp Mob street gangs, according to The Clarion-Ledger newspaper.
Officials told the paper the investigation, dubbed “Operation Bite Back”, was focused on Panola County, in the northwest of the state, and was a byproduct of the investigation into the death of Jessica Chambers.”
“I is regusted!” But not sad.
