A Jamaican

man will join two others in facing murder charges for the death of Adolf

Stubbs, whose remains were found inside a burned sport utility vehicle

in north Fayette County on March 31, 1999.

Paul Hylton

was delivered from Jamaica to local authorities last week by the U.S.

Marshal's Office, said Maj. Bruce Jordan of the Fayette County Sheriff's

Department. Hylton is charged only with murder, while two other men Glen

Simon Hamilton and Karl Bryan Hodge also face charges of aggravated assault,

arson and other firearms violations.

Hylton provided

information during an interview in Jamaica that made the effort to extradite

him worthwhile, Jordan said. Hylton has already been moved to another

jail facility while he awaits trial, a move that was requested by District

Attorney William McBroom.

Jamaican authorities

wouldn't allow Hylton to be extradited without assurances that he wouldn't

face the death penalty. That led McBroom to drop the death penalty against

Hamilton and Hodge earlier this year.

Investigators

believe Stubbs, a Jamaican native, was in the Atlanta area for a drug

deal. He was last seen with one of the defendants transporting about 150

pounds of marijuana in his vehicle, according to law enforcement records.

Hylton's apprehension

is viewed as a major break in the case, and it caught McBroom by surprise

that the Sheriff's Department was able to locate him.

Investigators

traveled to Jamaica earlier this year with the main goal of securing DNA

samples from Stubbs's parents since his body was so badly burned it was

difficult to identify.

But when they

went to Jamaica, the detectives also had one crucial factor that led to

Hylton's arrest his home address.
