Drummond is charged with four counts of first-degree murder, as well as aggravated kidnapping and abandonment. The judge revealed that the four Tiptonville victims were found shot to death.

Austin Drummond, 28, appeared by video feed from jail before a judge, two days after he was arrested in the killings of the parents, grandmother and uncle of an infant found abandoned in a stranger’s yard in Tiptonville last Thursday.

A weeklong search that began with the abandonment of an infant has ended with the capture of the 28-year-old suspect charged in the killings.
