Spined Soldier Bug with a caterpillar kill

Description:

Brown stink bug with some dark dotting on it's side, white underbelly and orangish legs. not sure about the species of its kill.

Habitat:

west central ga

Notes:

Not sure what kind of stink bug, had a hard time getting a picture because as soon as I spotted it, the bug tried to hide back in the leaves. #update: Thanks for the id forest dragon! I have a hard time distinguishing between stink bugs and soldier bugs.

This looks a lot like a Spined Soldier Bug (Podisus maculiventris): https://bugguide.net/node/view/237854

See what you think.
