Community reacts to arrest of small town's "golden boy"

Quincy, Illinois, journalist Bob Gough talked to "48 Hours" correspondent Maureen Maher about the arrest of Curtis Lovelace -- a local football star, former prosecutor and school board member -- for the murder of his wife, Cory Lovelace, eight years after her mysterious Valentine's Day death was ruled "undetermined."

Gough, who was a television news executive in Quincy at the time of Cory Lovelace's death, became fascinated with the case. He's currently working on a book about Cory's life, death and the arrest of the man accused of her murder.
