Demond Bluntson, a Texas man accused of fatally shooting two boys, including his 1-year-old son, in a hotel room on Tuesday, has now been charged in their mother's killing.
A judge charged Bluntson, 36, Thursday in the murder of his former girlfriend, Brandy Cerny. Police said they found Cerny's body the same day Bluntson fatally shot her two sons in a Laredo Holiday Inn hotel room. One of the boys, who is Bluntson's son, 1-year-old Davian Blunston, died at the hotel while the other boy, 6-year-old Jaydin Thompson, died later at a hospital from his wounds.
Bluntson was being held in a Laredo jail when an El Campo judge signed a murder warrant, accusing him of killing the 28-year-old Cerny, whose body was found Tuesday in a shack about 200 miles away. Wharton County District Attorney Josh McCown said the charge could be upgraded to capital murder but investigations are ongoing.
Bluntson is now expected to be charged with capital murder in the death of the 6-year-old. Bluntson was already charged with capital murder in the death of his own 1-year-old son.
