Sources: Fugitive found dead, 2 sisters alive
(CNN) — Two federal law enforcement sources now say that Adam Mayes — accused of murder and kidnapping in a case involving a Tennessee mother and her three daughters — was alive after suffering an apparently self-inflicted gunshot wound Thursday night in Union County, Mississippi. One of those sources had previously said that Mayes was dead. A different law enforcement source had also stated that Mayes was dead. The two surviving sisters “are suffering from the experience of being out in the woods and from being kidnapped. They are suffering from dehydration and exhaustion, but appear OK,” a federal law enforcement source at the scene told CNN.
