Triple Homicide in Parker County: One Man Exonerated, Two Others Face Charges

One of the men arrested in a triple homicide in Parker County has been exonerated, police said in a news release Wednesday.

Dennis Craig Alexander, 45, was booked into Parker County jail Tuesday and faced a capital murder charge. Police said he has since been released from custody and the charges against him have been dismissed.

Police said Alexander was initially identified as a suspect by the other suspects, but later findings led police to conclude he was not connected to the killings.

Arrests and Charges

Barrett Copeland, 19, and Trin McKnight, 27, were booked into jail Monday. They face a capital murder charge and are being held on $1 million bail.

The arrests come the week after the bodies of Tiffany Ann Williams, 44; David Wayne Walker, 42; and Robbie Allen Head, 55, were found in a water-filled creek in Hood County. The discovery came days after the Parker County Sheriff’s Office asked for the public’s help in finding “three people who may be in danger.”

The killing happened April 20 in Parker County, police said this week.

In addition to capital murder, Copeland faces a charge of burglary of a habitation, with bail for that count set at $50,000. McKnight also faces a charge of possession of a controlled substance out of Tarrant County, according to the sheriff’s office.
