"It's not a random act that we're talking about," said CMPD Chief Jennings.
As reported by WFAE:
A 35-year-old man has been charged in a triple homicide that left a Charlotte mother and her two children dead, Charlotte-Mecklenburg police said.
Benjamin Joseph Taylor was arrested this weekend in Imperial County, California, which borders Mexico. He’s charged with three counts of murder and one count of concealment of death in the case of Markayla Johnson, 22, Miracle Johnson, 4, and 7-month-old Messiah Johnson.
Police found their bodies when executing a search warrant Friday after the three had been reported missing weeks earlier, on March 3.
"As detectives began to investigate this missing persons case ... that search warrant,
unfortunately, revealed the bodies of all three," CMPD Chief Johnny Jennings said this weekend.
"Nothing is worse than homicides of small children and family members."
Jennings said Markayla Johnson had been in a relationship with the suspect.
"It's not a random act that we're talking about," he said.
