A 17-year-old boy from Wisconsin has been charged with the shooting deaths of his mother and stepfather, whose bodies were found in a state of severe decomposition at their residence in February. 

Nikita Casap faces charges including two counts of first-degree intentional homicide, two counts of concealing a corpse, theft of movable property, theft of movable property with special circumstances, taking and driving a vehicle without consent, and two counts of using ID information improperly to obtain money, as per court records.

The court commissioner set bail at $1 million for him while dismissing a previous auto theft case, according to a report by the affiliate FOX 6 Milwaukee.

Police investigators were able to track down telegram messages prior to the alleged murders, where Casap was asking a Russian speaker, “…while in Ukraine, I’ll be able to live a normal life? Even when it’s found out I did it.”

According to the report, Casap told the female classmate he had been in contact with a man from Russia.

Authorities claim the Russian knew about the boy’s scheme to take passports, a car and the family dog and flee to Ukraine, according to the report.
