Austin Robert Drummond, 28, appeared by a video feed from jail before a judge in Tiptonville, two days after he was arrested in the killings that set mostly rural areas of western Tennessee on edge.

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.

After an intensive weeklong manhunt that captivated the rural communities of Tennessee, authorities have successfully apprehended Austin Robert Drummond, the 28-year-old suspect in the killings of four relatives of a baby found abandoned last week.
