A DeKalb County superior court grand jury has indicted Aeman Presley on murder charges in connection with the deaths of a Smyrna hairstylist and a homeless man last year.
Presley was charged with malice murder, two counts of felony murder, armed robbery, aggravated assault and possession of a firearm during commission of felony in the killing of Karen Pearce, 44, who was shot while walking alone to her car in downtown Decatur Dec. 6 after having dinner with friends.
He was charged with malice murder, felony murder, aggravated assault and possession of a firearm during commission of a felony in the shooting of Calvin Gholston, 53, outside a shopping mall in unincorporated DeKalb on Sept. 27.
Presley was arrested in December after he tried to board a MARTA train without paying. He was found by police with a loaded gun and ammunition.
He was also charged with the killings of two other homeless people last year, Dorian Jenkins and Tommy Mims. Each was shot multiple times during Thanksgiving week as they slept on the streets in Atlanta.
