ROANOKE, Va.- – A motions hearing revealed a few new details about last month's triple homicide on Bent Mountain.
Court documents reveal the mother of the 18-year-old arrested in the killings says he has mental health issues.
Trevor Charles is charged with three counts of first-degree murder. During arguments over who would represent him, Roanoke County's assistant commonwealth's attorney stated his mother, Amy Charles, is expected to testify at trial that she knew he had a shotgun while staying at the Bent Mountain Road home and the two were together the day after the killings, even stopping near the scene where one victim's car was found.
