A 17-year-old Wisconsin boy has been charged in connection with the shooting deaths of his mother and stepfather, who were found severely decomposed in their home in February. 

Nikita Casap is charged with two counts of first-degree intentional homicide, two counts of hiding a corpse, theft of movable property, theft of movable property-special facts, taking and driving a vehicle without consent, and two counts of misappropriating ID information to obtain money, according to court records.

The court commissioner set his bail at $1 million and dismissed a prior auto theft case against him, according to a report from affiliate FOX 6 Milwaukee.

The bodies of Donald Mayer and his wife, Tatiana, were found inside of their Wisconsin home weeks after authorities claim their son shot them.

Police investigators were able to track down telegram messages prior to the alleged murders, where Casap was asking a Russian speaker, “…while in Ukraine, I’ll be able to live a normal life? Even when it’s found out I did it.”

According to the report, Casap told the female classmate he had been in contact with a man from Russia.

Authorities claim the Russian knew about the boy’s scheme to take passports, a car and the family dog and flee to Ukraine, according to the report.
