Although prosecutors have not announced yet whether or not the will seek the death penalty, it appears that Special Prosecutor Norman Rouse may do that. Online court records say that Rouse announced his intention to file aggravating charges in the Sheldon's deaths.

Winans and Laurin are due to appear in court again on January 25, 2010.
