A Trion man has pleaded guilty to a triple murder that occurred almost two years ago in the Holland Community in Chattooga County.

Steven James Mauldin shot and killed Linda Everett and Joe Edward Brown on August 27, 2019.

He also shot Daryl Lee Marsh who later succumbed to his injuries in a Chattanooga hospital.

Mauldin eluded local law enforcement and left Chattooga County shortly after the shootings.

He traveled to Alabama with an ex-girlfriend and was subsequently captured in Coweta County, Georgia.

Mauldin has been sentenced to life without the possibility of parole.
