A South Carolina man accused of holding four vulnerable adults captive in his basement – including one for at least 10 years – has been charged with murder after one of them was found dead.
Donnie Birchfield Jr., 36, has been charged with the murder of 49-year-old Shirley Arnsdorff, one of the four people allegedly held against her will in his basement.
Police responded to a call on July 25 that a woman had died at a home on Churchill Drive in the city of Lancaster, about 50 miles south of Charlotte, North Carolina.
Police have not revealed how she died.
At the scene, police discovered Arnsdorff’s body, along with three other adults allegedly being held in the basement. One of them had been held captive for at least 10 years, police said.
