The owner recognized the two men, one of whom is dating his estranged wife, and the other is a friend of the boyfriend.

Misenheimer is said to be the boyfriend, a report said, and is accused along with Proctor of taking a computer, subwoofer and jewelry from the home. The estranged wife is accused of asking a friend to hide the items at her house. Authorities were alerted about the stolen items and were able to obtain arrest warrants for the two men. Authorities continue to investigate the estranged wife’s involvement, the report said.
