Slaying Confession in Carroll County Murder Case
Joshua S Brothers admitted to shooting Joshua Merryman a 75 year old farmer who lived alone near Westminster Maryland. The confession followed investigations by States Attorney Brown Sheriff Bloom and Deputy Sheriff Bowers after the March 18 writ. Authorities said Merryman was killed inside his home and Brothers and his son were moved by the claim but no other details were provided. The case hinges on witness statements and the suspect’s later denial of a specific identity.
