A man has been arrested and charged with murder in a double shooting that may be related to this case. One of the victims is related to Eunice Daugherty.

Both of the latest victims are related to Eunice Daugherty. Jessica Daugherty is her granddaughter and Jeremy Daugherty is Jessica's son and Eunice's great grandson. The past 12 months have been very difficult for this family.

There is definitely speculation that Kennedy was responsible for the October incident (and perhaps some other killings in the area) but I don't believe that LE have any evidence of that at this time.
 
This is so sad. I hope Jessica Daugherty survives,
