FRISCO (CBSDFW.COM) - There has been an arrest in the murder of a popular college administrator. Anna Moses was found dead almost six weeks ago, and her ex-husband was taken into custody on Thursday afternoon and charged with her murder.

The victim's body was discovered after she did not show up for work back in January. Officers went to Anna's house in Frisco on a welfare check and found her dead inside. Her car, a 2009 Hyundai Sonata, was also stolen. The vehicle later turned up abandoned a few blocks away from the residence.

Anna was a loved administrator at the University of Texas at Dallas.

From the beginning of the investigation, police said that the crime did not appear to be random.

Investigators spoke with 63-year-old Robert Moses on the day after Anna's body was discovered. During that interview, police noticed a fresh cut on his right hand, above his ring finger's knuckle, which was soaking through a bandage. That was the clue that led to his arrest.

DNA samples from Robert matched blood that was found in Anna's car. It is not clear why police took almost six weeks to make an arrest in the case. The Texas Rangers and U.S. Marshals helped in taking the suspect into custody. Bond has been set at $1 million.
