Overview
- Daricka M. Moore, 24, is in custody at the Clay County jail after being booked on a first-degree murder charge that authorities say could be upgraded to capital murder.
- Investigators say evidence and witnesses indicate Moore acted alone, and they have not identified a motive.
- Authorities describe three crime scenes: his father, brother, and uncle were killed at a family home; a 7-year-old cousin was killed at a second location after an attempted sexual battery; the Rev. Barry Bradley and his brother Samuel Bradley were killed at a third site.
- Moore was stopped at a roadblock near Cedarbluff just before midnight following a multi-agency search and is being held without bail ahead of an initial court appearance Monday.
- Autopsies, interviews, and evidence processing are underway across the West Point–Cedarbluff area as officials finalize charges and continue the investigation.
