A convicted rapist has been charged with four counts of murder after a woman was found chained inside a metal container on his property in rural South Carolina , and he subsequently confessed to a 13-year-old quadruple murder. How does such evil reside in the heart of man is beyond me. To think this man walked among us smiling working and enjoying life as if nothing happened, yet he has no less than 5 murders to account for.
Todd Christopher Kohlhepp, 45, faces four counts of murder and a single kidnapping charge, the Spartanburg County Sheriff’s website said on Sunday. A bond hearing has been set. Sheriff Chuck Wright said Kohlhepp, a realtor, confessed on Saturday that he was the shooter who killed four people at a motorcycle shop in 2003. Wright added that Kohlhepp also showed police officers the grave sites of two of his other victims buried on his 95-acre property near Woodruff on Saturday. That’s in addition to the body found on Friday in a shallow grave at the site.
Charles Carver, Kala Brown’s boyfriend, was shot several times before being buried in a shallow grave, Greenville News reporter Anna Lee said on Twitter Saturday evening. ‘It’s all so gruesome that it’s a little hard for anyone to imagine the magnitude of what we’re dealing with,’ the coroner said according to Lee. Carver was a father, an uncle and a cousin, Wright told reporters Saturday night. He declined to comment on other parts of the investigation so as not to distract from the news of Carver’s death. ‘I do think this helps with a little bit of closure,’ a visibly shaken Wright said. ‘But I don’t think this make everything better. We certainly wanted a different outcome.’
