LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB/WAVE) — A Louisville man charged with murdering his girlfriend and her teenage daughter in June appeared in court Monday after he was indicted last week on new charges.

Tobias Malone, 24, was arrested and charged with two counts of murder, domestic violence and one count of tampering with physical evidence.

According to an arrest citation, Malone gave a statement after being read his Miranda rights, admitting to the shooting. He also admitted to destroying a cellphone belonging to one of the victims and throwing the gun he used in the shooting out of a car window.

Officials identified the victims as 29-year-old Vienna Peoples and 13-year-old Labria Miller.

Malone was indicted by a Jefferson County grand jury on July 30 on multiple sex crime charges involving juvenile victims.

These include:

  • One count of first-degree rape (victim under 12 years of age)
  • One count of first-degree sexual abuse (victim under 12 years of age)
  • One count of promoting a sexual performance by a minor (under 16 years of age)
  • 20 counts of possession of matter portraying a sexual performance by a minor (under 12 years of age)

Malone was arraigned in court Monday on the new charges. His bond remained at $1 million.
