"[Griesbauer] had four, maybe five insurance policies," Logston said. "If he were to die, … he was worth $1.2 million."
Logston said the arrest is a product of two years of continuing investigation and that the public helped put together the pieces so the Sheriff's Department had enough information to charge Young with murder.
"Throughout that time, we've had several people in the community and confidential informants give us more information," Logston said. "We finally have had enough evidence come up to indict her and hopefully convict her of first-degree murder."
Authorities could have arrested Young the day of the shooting, but they wouldn't have had enough evidence at the time to charge her with murder, Logston said.
"We could have arrested her early on, but it wouldn't have been a murder charge," Logston said. "… We knew, but we couldn't say."
Logston and Noe both said the investigation still is in progress.
"It's still an ongoing investigation," Noe said. "It has been for two years."
