A reward of $15,000 is being offered to anyone who provides information leading to the capture of a man suspected of killing four individuals in Tennessee, who were identified as relatives of an abandoned baby.

FOX 13 reports that the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation (TBI) contributed $7,500, and the U.S. Marshals matched this amount with another $7,500, for the capture of 28-year-old Austin Robert Drummond.

Previously, as CrimeOnline noted, Drummond faces charges including four counts of first-degree murder, kidnapping, and associated offenses, as per a TBI news release.

“At this time, Drummond remains at large and should be considered armed and dangerous,” the TBI said.

On July 29, police found four bodies along Carrington Road in Tiptonville.

TBI identified the murder victims as 15-year-old Braydon Williams, 21-year-old James Matthew Wilson, 20-year-old Adrianna Williams, and 38-year-old Cortney Rose.

Investigators said the victims were related to a 7-month-old girl found in a car seat in a front yard in Tigrett earlier in the day.

According to Facebook posts, Wilson and Adrianna Williams are the baby’s parents, Rose is Williams’ mother, and the teen is Williams’ brother.

Dyer County deputies were able to quickly identify the child and began searching for the child’s parents and Rose. The bodies were found a few hours later.

Authorities stated that these killings were targeted, not random. A relative of the victims mentioned on Facebook that Drummond was “close to our family” and had once been romantically involved with Cortney Rose’s sister.

“Yes, he was close to our family. Yes, we cared about him and thought he cared about us,” the post read, in part.

He has  literally been nothing short of amazing to us and our kids every time he has been around us up until this point. He has been amazing to our niece.  We NEVER expected him to cause ANY harm to ANYONE, much less anyone in our family.”

According to the Tennessee Department of Correction, Drummond has a criminal history, with convictions that include aggravated robbery and retaliation for past action. He spent 13 years behind bars and was released last year.

Meanwhile, TBI placed Drummond on the Tennessee Most Wanted list.

TBI

“Drummond is 5’10”, 190 lbs., brown hair, blue eyes & a goatee,” TBI said. “He’s believed to be driving a ’16 Audi A3 w/TN tag: RI 01896, with damage to the driver’s side.”

Anyone with information on his whereabouts should contact 731-415-7962, 731-333-0811, 1-800-TBI-FIND, or 911.
