Two Found Dead In Car Faced Child Porn Charges


Four people were found dead in a vehicle on a secluded road in northern Alabama Thursday, and authorities are now saying two of those four people were facing child pornography and molestation charges in Tennessee.

According to the Huffington Post, Winston County Sheriff Rick Harris said two people found fatally shot in a vehicle Wednesday night near Double Springs had court dates in Tennessee the day their bodies were discovered.

ABC News stated that the of the four bodies found, three were male and one was female, and all are believed to be from Tennessee.

Their identities have not yet been released.

According to Alabama’s News Leaders, a passerby noticed the vehicle off a logging road in the Black Pond community and notified the authorities.

The report continued on to say that when deputies arrived at the location, they found the four bodies inside the car, which had an out-of-state tag on it.

Cullman Times continued on to say that the four bodies may have been killed by one another in either a suicide pact or a murder-suicide at some point on Wednesday.

The report continued on to say that all but one of the victims were related.

Harris stated, “They all died of gunshot wounds, and at this point we’ve ruled out any type of hostile drug takeover, a drug deal gone bad, or anything like that. We’re exploring the possibility of some self-inflicted suicide, or murder-assisted suicide between the four. Forensics is doing a trajectory investigation now.”

According to the Huffington Post, Harris and other law enforcement officers spent all night processing the scene before finally moving the vehicle to an indoor location to process the vehicle.

The report continued on to say that investigators are still waiting on results of the forensics testing.

The Alabama Bureau of Investigation, the coroner and the district attorney’s office are also assisting in the investigation of the four found dead, two of which were facing child porn and molestation charges.
