A couple has been charged in the murders of a mother found stabbed in her Louisiana mobile home and her 4-year-old daughter, whose body was found suffocated in the woods across state lines in Mississippi at a suspected human trafficking site.

Daniel Callihan, 36, faces two counts of first-degree murder in the deaths of Callie Brunett, 35, and her daughter, Erin, announced Scott Perrilloux, the 21st Judicial District Attorney, in a news conference.

The defendant also faces kidnapping charges for the abduction of Erin and her 6-year-old sister – who was found alive at the suspected trafficking site. Callihan’s girlfriend, Victoria Cox, 32, faces a charge of first-degree murder and kidnapping charges. She also faces a charge of being an accessory after the fact to first-degree murder, Perrilloux said.
