WICHITA, Kan. (AP) — A 24-year-old Wichita man is charged with capital murder in the deaths of his twin brother and sister-in-law.
Sedgwick County prosecutors charged Luis Alvarado-Meraz Wednesday with capital murder and two alternative counts of first-degree murder. He is suspected in the deaths of 24-year-old Manuel Alvarado-Meraz and Manuel’s 22-year-old wife, Lucero Rodriguez.
The suspect lived with the couple, who were found dead by a relative on Jan. 14. Alvarado-Meraz made his first court appearance Wednesday and will be represented by a court-appointed attorney. His bond was set at $1 million.
Police and court records do not indicate a motive for the deaths.
