ZEBULON Franklin County sheriff’s deputies have charged a teenager with first-degree murder, after the sheriff says he decapitated his mother at their home northeast of Zebulon.
Sheriff Kent Winstead told reporters that the teen walked out of the house as a deputy arrived holding his mother’s head in one hand and what appeared to be a large butcher knife in the other. “It was a gruesome scene,” Winstead said.
Deputies arrested Oliver Funez, 18. They said the body of his mother, Yesenia Funez Beatriz Machado, was inside the house.
Two young siblings, ages about 2 or 3, were home at the time of the incident but were unharmed, Winstead said. A fourth child was at school at the time, he said.
Winstead said it was too early to determine what led to the killing.
Deputies said Funez called 911 to report a homicide at the family’s home at 90 Morgan Drive, off Carlyle Road, at about 12:47 p.m. He was arrested without incident.
“He stayed on 911 until the deputy arrived, talking the whole time,” Winstead said.
Some more cultural diversity we could do without.
Nothing like feral 3rd World culture to “enlighten” Western Civilization eh?
Franklin County is about as rural as you can get. No big cities, or even big towns. But folks won’t garden without a handgun. You wouldn’t leave your wife at home without a gun. In fact, you probably wouldn’t want to go anywhere in that county without a gun. The ferals are out of control.
Yep. Three anchor babies and no doubt we were paying for housing, medical bills and everything else.
My bet is that she wouldn’t give him enough drug money to keep him on his high.
Obviously it was the butcher knife. It's time we took "common sense" butcher knife-control laws seriously....
The idiots that wrote this article for the “State” need to take a civics class. The deputies might have arrested the perps but they didn’t charge them with anything that would be the D.A.’s job.
I spent every summer in Franklin Co. on my grandparents farm; my Mothers family has been there since the late 18th century. It’s obviously not what it used to be.
I want to know if they are here legally
I live about a mile from there. The local store gossip is that she wouldn’t give him money so he could go to NYC and become a rap star.
i guess he will be having plenty of real life experience to draw from for some dark rap lyrics. /semi sarc
very sad. but as usual this did not happen all of a sudden for this family.
Just heard a report that the perp is an illegal alien and is on four psychotic drugs. Sheesh!
What state?
Obviously North Colorado.
“”Obviously North Colorado.””
Good grief, I didn’t even see the NC. You have to forgive me - I’m taking care of a husband with a freshly broken shoulder and he fell out of his chair today and my mind is on a million things....He looks like he’s been run over by an 18 wheeler due to all the bindings/wrapping two different ER visits have caused. Finally got to see an ortho surgeon who took all the bindings off and just put a sling on and that’s difficult to keep in place. They say no problems - just challenges, right? I think I would beg to differ but I’ll persevere - I HOPE!
According to the title it was in NC.
Just looked at a map. Zebulon is just east of Lizard Lick.
