A man accused of murdering his mother and subsequently driving to his sister’s residence in Pennsylvania with the corpse — cloaked in McDonald’s wrappers and assorted debris in his vehicle, with his attorney comparing it to “dressing up a skeleton” — is anticipated for extradition to Maryland on charges of strangling two individuals and attempting to disguise their deaths as suicides, according to authorities.

Kevin Ahn, 31, stands accused of killing Sun Tok Lim, 83, and In Yong Kim, 70, at their residence in Owings Mills, Baltimore County, on March 24. This occurred on the same day he allegedly strangled his mother, Hyun Ahn, 61, resulting in first-degree murder and assault accusations after transporting her body to his sister’s home in Penn Township, Pennsylvania.

Ahn, who is awaiting extradition to Maryland, is also charged as a fugitive from justice.

As per court records reviewed by local NBC affiliate WBAL, Lim and Kim were discovered in their kitchen on the ground, with belts secured around their necks. Prosecutors have revealed that their causes of death matched that of Hyun Ahn’s. Initially, Kevin Ahn faced charges of corpse abuse related to the transport of her body.

“The abuse of corpse charge was dropped in order to facilitate the defendant’s transfer to Maryland to face his criminal charges there,” the Lancaster County District Attorney’s Office said in a statement to WBAL. “Our investigation into this incident continues and further charges are pending.”

Lancaster County officials say it was Kevin Ahn’s estranged sister in Penn Township who reported him to police after a “suspicious incident” at her residence , according to a police press release.

The woman allegedly told investigators that Kevin Ahn, who is “transient and not generally welcome at the home,” per cops, showed up at her house driving their mother’s 2022 Toyota Rav4 and was “acting weird.” The sister and her husband, who came outside to confront Kevin Ahn, both allegedly saw “an unresponsive person positioned across the rear seat and floor” of his vehicle, “partially covered in household goods” and trash, according to police.

A note was allegedly found in a window saying, “Mom is in the car. I’m sorry please give her a funeral. My brain is fried. My mom lied, she gave me fake money from the N.A. So did my employers. I lost my mind, please forgive me.”

At Kevin Ahn’s preliminary hearing in April, officers testified that his mom had been dead for at least 30 to 40 hours inside of her vehicle before she was discovered by Kevin Ahn’s sister and husband, according to the Daily Voice. Kevin Ahn’s attorney argued that he was allegedly mourning his mother in his own way — as if he was “dressing up a skeleton” — not abusing her corpse, the Voice reported.

“Covered the body out of respect,” the lawyer reportedly said.
