Guy Heinze Jr. singlehandedly bludgeoned seven members of his family and a family friend to death in their Georgia mobile home, police said today.
Heinze, 22, who is facing eight counts of murder in the killings at the New Hope Plantation Mobile Home Park near Brunswick, Ga., that were discovered Aug. 29, is the only person charged in the case.
"The investigation at this time does not indicate that there were others involved in this case and, therefore, no other suspects are being sought by the Glynn County Police Department at this time," police said in a statement released today.
"This investigation is still very much ongoing and according to Chief [Matt] Doering, all information seems to indicate that the suspect, Guy Heinze Jr., acted alone," the statement said.
Autopsies on the eight victims indicated they all died of blunt force trauma, and there was no evidence of gunshot wounds, police said.
Ron Harrison, Heinze's attorney, told ABC News Jacksonville, Fla., affiliate WJXX-TV that Heinze was "shocked" when he learned he was going to be charged, and that Heinze continues to deny that he had anything to do with the killings.
Relatives of Heinze and his alleged victims said they could not understand how a single man would have been able to beat eight people to death in one mobile home.
Clint Rowe, an uncle of four of the people Heinze allegedly killed, told The Associated Press that with several grown men among the victims, he didn't see how the killings could have been carried out by one person alone, unless the victims were drugged.
