Man ordered to stand trial in slayings of mother and sister
Zakary Carson 35 was ordered to stand trial on two counts of criminal homicide for the Oct. 28 shooting deaths of his mother Latricia Ezell 52 and sister Ashley Campfield 29 outside an Allentown apartment complex. A detective testified the suspect had stopped taking psychiatric medication weeks earlier and described the frightened 3-year-old boy fleeing between the victims as the shootings occurred. The child later fled to his grandmother while Carson called 911 to report the killings.
