NC man who dumped victims in SC faces death penalty

Prosecutors are seeking the death penalty for a North Carolina man charged with killing three women and dumping two of the victim’s bodies in wooded areas in South Carolina last Fall. Gaston County, North Carolina resident 47-year-old Danny Robbie Hembree, Jr. is accused of  killing two Gastonia women, 17-year-old Heather Catterton and 30-year-old Randi Dean Saldana, and dumping their bodies in two separate wooded areas in the northern part of South Carolina. Catterton’s body was found in October in woods near the York County town of Clover. Saldana’s burned remains were found November 15 in Kings Mountain State Park near Blacksburg in Cherokee County. Police says they also found evidence that Hembree killed a third victim Deborah Ratchford in 1992. Authorities say Hembree knew all three women.
