CONNER faces two counts of murder and one count of possession of a knife during a crime for the murders of Rosella Mitchell and son Dylan Conner, whose bodies were found in the burned remains of their home. Police say Conner was found an hour after the bodies were removed from the house; he was allegedly sitting in his car for about 10 minutes at an intersection, wearing bloody clothes, and told police at the time that he was returning from work. More bloody clothes and a large serrated knife were found in his car. He was released after being charged with traffic offenses but then turned himself in on August 26th after warrants were issued for his arrest.
