TALIAFERRO COUNTY, Ga. () – A man wanted for two homicides in Florida was taken into custody in Taliaferro County, Friday.

The Taliaferro County Sheriff’s Office responded to calls of a suspicious person on the shoulder of the highway, Friday afternoon, described as wearing all white, kneeling with one hand raised.

After the individual identified himself to a responding deputy, a check of records showed that he was wanted in Sumter, South Carolina for pointing a gun at a person, just earlier that day. Sumter County investigators also stated that he was a suspect in a homicide case in Penellas County, Florida.

The Pinellas County Sheriff’s Office has identified him as 37-year-old Nicholas Steven Kirchner. He’s facing charges in the murder of his parents, 53-year-old Elizabeth Lee Kirchner and 64-year-old Steven Eric Kirchner.

Nicholas reportedly admitted to killing both of his parents, calling it a ‘righteous kill’, and told investigators he abandoned a stolen vehicle on I-20, which was later found by the Warren County Sheriff’s Office.

He has been transported to the McDuffie County Sheriff’s Office jail to await extradition to Florida on two counts of First-Degree Murder Premeditated.
