CHARLESTON, W.Va. (WCHS) — A woman found dead inside a Charleston home on Thursday was beaten to death with a vase, according to police.
Lora Farley, 36, of Charleston was found dead inside a home in the 1600 block of Chandler Drive around 3:15 p.m. on Jan. 18.
Surface was arrested Sunday evening on an unrelated outstanding warrant for third-offense domestic battery. In that incident, police said Surface pushed his 74-year-old grandmother down a flight of stairs at the same Chandler Drive home on Jan. 3. Both sides of the victim's pelvis were broken, police said, after Surface pushed her because she wouldn't give him money.
On Sunday, police located Surface and arrested him on the outstanding domestic battery warrant. He was interviewed by detectives who said he admitted to hitting Farley on the head with a large vase numerous times and strangling her. Police said Surface also told them he put her body in the bed and covered up the blood, the vase and her face.
He was charged with first-degree murder for her death. If convicted, he could face up to life in prison without the possibility of parole.
Why wasn't this fool in jail already?
He had outstanding warrants for domestic battery already.
