RawNews1st – The couples names are Dustin Vandyke and Gracie Riddle both are in North Carolina.
Cops said they got a tip of an unreported death, which happened several months before on a property at Moulton Spring Road in the town of Erwin.
Officers did not release information on why they specifically believe this is murder. They did not suggest a cause of death, though according to WRAL, they emphasized that this passing did not look like an accident. They did not suggest a motive in the alleged killing or say whether the couple told authorities anything.
“Shortly after receiving this information, Erwin investigators executed a search warrant at the same address,” cops said.
“With the assistance of Harnett County Sheriff’s Department’s cadaver canine, investigators discovered a deceased and badly decomposed infant buried behind the residence.”
“Based on evidence and interviews conducted during the course of this investigation, investigators have charged both the mother and the father of the infant with first-degree murder,” cops said. “The investigation is ongoing and additional charges are likely.”
Vandyke and Riddle are locked up without bond at the Harnett County Detention Center for first-degree murder. Court is set for Monday at 9 a.m.
They did not identify the baby.
