LUBBOCK,TX (KCBD) -
One of the two primary suspects named in a double homicide out of east Lubbock County now stands indicted for felon in possession of a firearm. Tuesday, a Lubbock County Grand Jury decided there is enough evidence to send Casey Ledbetter, 37 to trail on the charge.
Ledbetter remains jailed on a $100,000 bond. On Friday, the Lubbock county sheriff named Ledbetter a suspect in the deaths of Joanie Parker and her son Derek Hale. Their bodies were discovered on a vacant property southeast of Idalou in late May.
Authorities also named Meredith Ledbetter, 28 as a suspect in the deaths. She remains jailed on a forgery charge.
Investigators believe that possible charges could be present in relation to the Idalou case this week.
