A Trigg County man charged with killing three family members and another man near Cadiz last month has been indicted, Kentucky State Police say.
Ryan Champion plead not guilty Nov. 3 in the murder case of his parents Lindsey and Joy Champion, along with his sister Emily.
He also allegedly killed a third man, Rito Riservato, who was found murdered in the Champion residence.
The Associated Press reported what is believed to be Riservato's connection to Champion:
A prosecutor says a man charged in the slayings of his parents and sister in western Kentucky was allegedly involved in a murder-for-hire scheme with a fourth victim found in the home. Commonwealth's Attorney G.L. Ovey says authorities believe Ryan Champion killed the other man involved in the scheme.
A Trigg County Grand Jury indicted Champion on the following charges:
- One count of capital murder
- Three counts of complicity to commit capital murder
- One count of complicity to capital kidnapping
Ryan Champion remains in the Christian County Jail in lieu of a $5 million bond. KSP Detectives are continuing to investigate.
