A North Carolina man has pleaded guilty to murdering a 28-year old woman and a 4-year-old child that he apparently believed was gay. NBC 17 reports:

An alleged cult leader, accused of killing two, pleaded guilty Monday to two charges of first degree murder.

Peter Moses Jr. was charged in the 2011 deaths of 4-year-old Jadon Higganbothan and 28-year-old Antoinetta McKoy.

Jadon and McKoy were reported missing in February 2011. Their bodies were later found in the backyard of Moses’ mother’s Durham home in June 2011.
