A young married couple was found slain inside their home in a quiet, suburban Philadelphia neighborhood Tuesday morning, police say.

Northampton Police Chief Mike Clark said a painter working at the home on the unit block of Kitty Knight Drive in Churchville discovered the bodies around 10 a.m.

The husband and wife, who police say are in their late 20s and early 30s, were found on the second floor of the house. Clark said they were murdered.

A suspect has not yet been identified.

Police found a rifle and shell casings inside the home though they have not determined whether the rifle was used to kill them, Clark said.

There was no forced entry into the home, but neighbors reported hearing suspicious activity Monday night. 

One neighbor told NBC10 they heard the sound of a car alarm outside the couple's home around 10 p.m. Monday. Police discovered Tuesday that a car belonging to one of the victims is missing. They have not yet released a description of the vehicle.

Police have not responded to the home previously, Clark said, adding that it is a quiet neighborhood.

"We've had no contact with these folks at all," Clark said. "They seem to be a nice, young couple. Just happened to be unfortunate victims in this case."

A teen boy is charged in the double stabbing of two other teenagers at a Center City SEPTA station that witnesses described as a "bloodbath."

The 16-year-old boy surrendered to police Tuesday. He is charged with attempted murder, aggravated assault and other related offenses. It is not clear at this time if the teen will be charged as an adult. Therefore, we are not identifying him.

Police say the teen suspect was involved in a fight with two 17-year-old boys on the eastbound platform of the 8th and Market Street station on April 25. During the fight, the suspect allegedly stabbed one teen in the neck, stomach and left arm and the second teen in the chest and stomach. The suspect also allegedly cut the second teen's wrist.

Quam Pettigrew, 15, told NBC10 he was on his way to the dentist when he witnessed the stabbing and bloody aftermath.

"There was like a big hole right here in the middle of his neck," Pettigrew said. "He was saying, 'I just don't want to die right now. I really don't want to die.'"

The first teen was taken to Jefferson Hospital while the second teen was taken to Hahnemann Hospital.

Both teens are currently stable, police said.

Witnesses described the stabbing as something similar to a scene from a horror movie. One of the victims walked around disoriented, not knowing at first where he was stabbed.

"All I seen was a bloody mess," one witness said. "It's something that shouldn't be happening in the center of the city because I look at this as being a safe haven. I've been a long time resident of Philadelphia and it gets scary at times."

Police initially said they were looking for a male and female suspect. They are no longer looking for a second suspect.

Beatrice Makundu explained why her son joined the Marines.

“To die for this country,” she said. “But not to die on a Philadelphia street.”

Beatrice and her husband Steven Makundu are desperate for answers after their son Sam Makundu, 24, was shot and killed in Southwest Philadelphia.

“It’s so hard,” Beatrice Makundu said. “We miss him every minute. Every second.”

Sam Makundu, 24, of Upper Darby, Pennsylvania, was on the 5400 block of Paschall Avenue back on April 22 at 3:20 a.m. when he was shot in the face and chest by an unidentified gunman. He was taken to the Penn Presbyterian Medical Center where he later died from his injuries.

More than a week later, no arrests have been made and his family continues to mourn. Makundu had just returned from active duty in Louisiana at the end of March and was set to begin his security job at Temple University.

Makundu’s family told NBC10 he was with a woman at a lounge shortly before his death. They say he received a phone call and went outside holding hands with the woman when a gunman opened fire.

Makundu’s father, Steven Makundu, told NBC10 surveillance video shows a woman going through his clothes and searching for his cellphone after the shooting. He believes his son was set up but he’s unsure why he was targeted. It's also unclear whether the woman spotted on video going through his clothes is the same woman he left the lounge with.

“I think the killing of Sam was not done by one person,” Steven Makundu said. “It was a well, pre-planned plot. They knew it.”

If you have any information on the shooting, please call Philadelphia Police.

When someone files a complaint with the state commission tasked with investigating civil rights and harassment issues, resolution can take a long time — a very long time.

The average time it takes for the Pennsylvania Human Relations Commission to close a case is 500 days, according to a commission spokeswoman.

The commission, which according to one former staff attorney had a budget of almost $11 million in 2014, no longer posts annual complaint totals and resolutions on its website. It stopped that accountability practice in 2013. 

But a spokeswoman said the number of complaints in 2017 was 3,200, which is in line with the numbers that were posted publicly between 2010 and 2013.

Of those 3,200, investigators found harassment in 60 cases.

The lawyer, Ryan Hancock, said the commission's staffing levels have dwindled while the case workload has remained the same.

"We have thousands and thousands of complaints. Funding has historically gone down which means you have less and less people with the same amount of complaints," Hancock told NBC10 Investigators in an interview. "That’s just a recipe for disaster."

When asked whether the commission's current funding is adequate for the amount of cases, a spokeswoman for the commission said, "I think every state agency would like to have more resources."

Gov. Tom Wolf's spokesman said the current administration hopes to increase the commission's budget by 15 percent in the 2018-2019 budget that is supposed to begin July 1.

The Yale University Board of Trustees has voted to rescind Bill Cosby's honorary degree after the comedian was found guilty on sexual assault charges on Thursday.

Cosby was convicted on three counts of aggravated assault related to an encounter with a former Temple University employee, Andrea Constand, in his Cheltenham home in Pennsylvania. He was accused of drugging and molesting Constand in 2004. During the trial, five other women testified to also having been drugged and assaulted by Cosby.

A Yale spokesman released the following statement Tuesday night:

"Today the Yale University board of trustees voted to rescind the honorary degree awarded to William H. Cosby, Jr. in 2003. The decision is based on a court record providing clear and convincing evidence of conduct that violates fundamental standards of decency shared by all members of the Yale community, conduct that was unknown to the board at the time the degree was awarded. The board took this decision following Mr. Cosby’s criminal conviction after he was afforded due process.

"Yale is committed to both the elimination of sexual misconduct and the adherence to due process. We reaffirm that commitment with our action today."

Wesleyan University President Michael Roth has also announced he intends to ask the Board of Trustees to revoke the honorary degree Wesleyan awarded Cosby in 1987. Roth will make his request when the Board of Trustees meets in May.

In June 2016, the University of Connecticut revoked an honorary degree awarded to Cosby in 1996. It was the first time the school had ever rescinded an honorary degree.

The court case has destroyed the legacy of the once influential comedian. He was originally charged in 2015, but the initial trial ended in a mistrial when the jury deadlocked.

Cosby now faces up to 10 years in prison on each count. A sentencing date has not been announced. His attorneys said they plan to appeal the verdict.

WHAT YOU MISSED YESTERDAY

Elusive Bear Captured After 30-Hour Jaunt through NJ Yards: A wandering bear with a penchant for taking long naps in trees was captured Tuesday afternoon after a nearly 30-hour jaunt through New Jersey backyards, some fence-hopping and a trip near a school. The bear, which appears to be a roughly 200-pound male yearling, was spotted in Ridgewood shortly before 11 a.m. Tuesday, traipsing in and around homes and lumbering dangerously close to a front door before he hopped a fence -- and then headed toward the school. As of early afternoon, the bear had climbed a flowering tree near a home; authorities said they were "smoking" the animal in an attempt to keep it in place. "The bear came to our backyard," said Alexa Topolski, who lives in the home. "It took a drink from our pond, our backyard pond, and then it took a nap in our back lawn, and then animal control came and they scared it up into a tree." Animal control was able to tranquilize the bear; it fell down from the tree and animal control officers were working to secure it and bring it to its habitat.

Jersey Shore Town Puts End to Plastic Bag Use: Joseph Mancini grew tired of seeing plastic bags floating in the ocean and flapping stuck in trees and fences in his New Jersey shore town. So Mancini, mayor of the biggest town on Long Beach Island in Ocean County, decided last year to push for a bag ban. He and other township officials were successful. Now, after a six-month grace period, a plastic bag ban went into effect May 1. To help with the adjustment, about 20,000 reusable canvas bags are being handed out to households in Long Beach Township, which makes up roughly 11 miles of the 12-mile-long island in Ocean County. That's enough for two reusable bags for every home, Mayor Joe Mancini said. The reusable bags cost the township less than a dollar a piece, Mancini said. "We'll save that money just in litter pickup alone," he added.

AROUND THE WORLD

Special Counsel Team Has Floated Idea of Subpoena for Trump: The special counsel leading the Russia investigation raised the prospect in March of issuing a grand jury subpoena for President Donald Trump, his former attorney said, confirming that investigators have floated the extraordinary idea of forcing a sitting president to testify under oath. Attorney John Dowd told The Associated Press on Tuesday that special counsel Robert Mueller's team broached the subject during a meeting with Trump's legal team while they were negotiating the terms of a possible interview with the president. It was not immediately clear in what context the possibility of a subpoena was raised or how serious Mueller's prosecutors were about the move. Mueller is probing not only Russian election interference and possible coordination with Trump associates but possible obstruction of justice by Trump. Even if Mueller's team decided to subpoena Trump as part of the investigation, he could still fight it in court or refuse to answer questions by invoking his Fifth Amendment protection from self-incrimination.

A New Jersey farm has taken its state's love for pork roll to a whole new level — by turning it into ice cream.

Windy Brow Farms in Sussex County has created a "Taylor ham ice cream" flavor (as it's called in the northern part of the state), part of the farm's new "Only in Jersey" ice cream collection.

Knowing that ice cream made only from pork roll would be pretty unpalatable, managing partner Jake Hunt added a French toast/maple element to the ice cream, creating a "really good balance of super sweet and super salty," according to NJ.com.

For those Jerseyans who can't get out to Sussex, Hunt says you can create your own pork roll ice cream: simply chop up and caramelize pork roll, pop it in the oven and pan-fry it, then toss it with cinnamon and sugar. Then make maple ice cream with local maple syrup, and mix in pieces of challah bread.

The "Only in Jersey" collection was created to celebrate Cow's Brow Creamery being part of the farm for five years. It will feature a Jersey-inspired flavor for each year.

The pork roll ice cream will be available at least until the end of July, Hunt says. Flavors for the collection are scheduled be introduced every three to four weeks, and will include blueberry, sweet corn and tomato pie.

A few dozen students at Swarthmore College remained camped for a second day inside the president's office, protesting what they believe is a lack of urgency in responding to sexual violence on their Chester County campus.

The group called Organizing for Survivors (O4S) initially arrived at the administration building Tuesday. They refused to leave in the evening, and the sit-in turned to a sleep-in.

Students said Wednesday morning that the protest would move at 12 p.m. to the office of the associate dean of students, Nathan Miller.

"Nathan Miller is our associate dean of students and is in charge of student conduct and discipline," student organizer Priya Dieterich said. "We have demanded his resignation and are using today to put pressure on him to meet that demand."

President Valerie Smith said in an email to students Tuesday that monthslong searches to fill two administrative positions, Title IX coordinator and violence prevention educator, are nearing conclusions.

"We are profoundly committed to improving our Title IX policies and procedures and to making sure that our students are heard and helped in the most sensitive, proactive, and effective ways possible," Smith wrote. "These key leadership positions will be central to our efforts to uphold and maintain an inclusive campus environment that is free from all forms of discrimination and harassment."

The Title IX coordinator position has been vacant since October 2017 and only six of 11 Title IX liaisons remain at the college, according to a report in the college newspaper in April.

O4S is now calling on Nathan Miller to resign, as well as Dean of Students Elizabeth Braun and Associate Director for Investigations Beth Pitts, according to The Phoenix newspaper.

The student group's protests date to spring 2013, or as the newspaper calls it, "The Summer of Discontent" on the Swarthmore campus.

"That semester, student activism surged around a variety of issues on campus, including mishandling of Title IX cases," The Phoenix reported in the April 5 story. "The college came under national scrutiny when in April 2013 a group of survivors filed a Title IX complaint and a Clery complaint against the college. The survivors testified that Swarthmore had systematically underreported and mishandled sexual violence on campus."

Title IX is a federal law signed by President Richard Nixon as part of the Education Amendments of 1972.

"Title IX is a comprehensive federal law that prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex in any federally funded education program or activity," according to the U.S. Department of Justice. "The principal objective of Title IX is to avoid the use of federal money to support sex discrimination in education programs and to provide individual citizens effective protection against those practices."

The neighbor of a young married couple who were murdered inside their Bucks County home is wanted as a person of interest in their deaths.

Tyler and Christina Roy were found dead Tuesday morning on the second floor of their home at 26 Kitty Knight Drive in Churchville, Pennsylvania.

Bucks County First Assistant District Attorney Gregg Shore said Wednesday that 26-year-old Daniel Kenneth Mooney is sought for questioning in the case.

Mooney previously lived across the street from the Roys' home, investigators said. Authorities are not sure if the couple knew Mooney. Neighbors said he battled drug addiction in the past.

Mooney has an active arrest warrant for a car theft on April 30, Shore said. The Roy's Ford Edge SUV was also missing when police began their investigation.

Police found the vehicle Wednesday morning in Northeast Philadelphia along with Mooney's cell phone.

A neighbor told NBC10 that they heard the Roy's car alarm going off for a significant period of time Monday night. After looking out the window, all seemed to be fine, they said.

A painter who was doing work on the Roy home found the couple Tuesday. A cause and manner of death is pending autopsy results. Police previously said a rifle and shell casings were found, but stopped short in saying that it was used in the homicides.

Tyler, 27, and Christina, 28, moved into the home in 2016, the same year they were married. Christina also worked as a real estate photographer, according to an acquaintance.

Mooney is said to be walking with a significant limp. His family is cooperating with authorities, Shore said.

Anyone with information is asked to call the Bucks County District Attorney's Office at 215-322-6114.
