BRISTOW, Okla. (AP) – An Oklahoma man charged with being an accessory after the fact of first-degree murder in the 1992 disappearance and deaths of two women and a girl is due in court.

Records show Grover Prewitt Jr. will be arraigned today in Bristow.

He was charged after the bodies of Wendy Camp; her 6-year-old daughter, Cynthia Britto; and Camp’s sister-in-law, Lisa Kregear, were found buried in April on land that he and his late mother owned at separate times in the early 1990s.

He’s pleaded not guilty.

According to an affidavit, Prewitt told investigators that he dug a hole for a septic tank and that after the women and girl disappeared, his mother, Ida Prewitt, asked him to fill it in and sprinkle the ground with pepper to cover up any odor.
