The man arrested Sunday in connection to the shooting deaths of three people, including an unborn child, has been connected to a fourth murder.

Police said 37-year-old Paul Brock, of Corbin, was arrested on Sunday and charged with the murders of 74-year-old Mary Jackson, her granddaughter, 33-year-old Tiffany Myers and Myers’ unborn child. The women had been shot to death.

On Monday afternoon, police discovered the body of Myers’ husband, 45-year-old Aaron Byers, in a wooded area, according to media reports. He had been shot multiple times.

Authorities said that when Brock was arrested on Sunday, he accused Byers of committing the murders. Police, though, say Brock shot and killed Byers on Saturday before he drove to Byers’ home and killed Myers, her unborn baby and Jackson.

Brock was lodged in the Whitley County Detention Center.
