A spokeswoman for 7th Judicial District Attorney Dan Hotsenpiller said Tuesday that she couldn’t comment on what led to the murder charges. Police have said the girls were between the ages of 5 and 10. Investigators believe they were dead for several weeks before the bodies were found in mid-September on a farm outside Norwood, about 30 miles (48.2 kilometers) west of the ski resort town of Telluride. Authorities have shared few other details about the case that shocked the town of about 500 people. It’s not clear how any of the defendants are connected to the children. Authorities haven’t released any details about what caused their deaths, and affidavits in the case have been closed to public view. Two men and a third woman face other charges in the girls’ deaths. Frederick Blair, a 23-year-old man from Norwood, Ika Eden, a 53-year-old woman from Jamaica, and Ashford Archer, a 50-year-old man from Haiti, are charged with fatal child abuse. Blair and Archer also have been charged with acting as an accessory to a crime. This article originally appeared on Time.
