Bond Set For Suspected Serial Killer

A Cleveland man has pleaded not guilty to nearly 300 counts including aggravated murder and rape charges that date back to the mid-1990s. 49-year-old Elias Acevedo is being held on 5 million dollars bond in the 1994 death of his 30-year-old neighbor Pamela Pemberton and the 1995 death of 18-year-old Christina Adkins. Assistant Cuyahoga County Prosecutor Blaze Thomas is not releasing a motive, but says there may be more victims.

Thomas says authorities last week identified human remains found in Cleveland as those of Adkins.

Jim has been with WCBE since 1996. Before that he worked as a reporter at another Columbus radio station, and for three newspapers in Southwest Florida.
