A Geneva, Ohio man is behind bars for a double homicide in Ashtabula, Ohio.
20 year old James Leider of Geneva, Ohio is facing two charges of aggravated murder..
The sheriff's office made the announcement at a press conference Thursday afternoon.
The victims, 23 year old Cord Cox of Austinburg, and 25 year old Betheny Mehall of Geneva were found in a car along Bishop Road Sunday afternoon.
Both died from a gunshot wound to the back of the head.
Leider is being held on $5,000,000 bond.
No mention of motive Dick?
I have tried all the darn stations in Cleveland to watch the presser. They are having difficulties.

Saw this on their RIP facebook page: 20-year-old James P. Leider of Geneva Township is the man responsible for the murder of Mehall and Cox according to police. They believe is was a drug deal gone bad between Leider and Cox. Mehall was only a victim.
I don't know how true it is or if this is an official statement just thought I'd share. Also apparently James Leider was a friend of the familys of the victims
