"Police say Mcclaney walked into the suite he's been living in since Dec. 18 with his mother and Arnold, saw them relaxing in bed, and allegedly shot Arnold in the head.

"He then reportedly said to his mother, `I'm going to go be with Jesus,` before he pulled the gun up to his own head and pulled the trigger.
