BONNIE DOONE, N.C. (AP) - A North Carolina man serving time in a Georgia prison is set to face murder charges in the slayings of his brother and sister-in-law more than two decades ago.
The Cumberland County Sheriff's Office said Monday that 48-year-old Sean Patrick McDuffy faces two counts of first-degree murder in the 1985 deaths of 24-year-old Kelly McDuffy and 20-year-old Bobbie Michelle McDuffy.
Sheriff's spokeswoman Debbie Tanna says the cold case was reopened in 2007 after new evidence emerged. She would not say what that information was.
Sean McDuffy has been serving time in Georgia for trying to kill a girlfriend.
He was living with his brother and sister-in-law at the time of their deaths and was considered a suspect but disappeared shortly thereafter.
