TAHLEQUAH, Okla. (AP) – An Oklahoma state prison inmate has been charged with two counts of first-degree murder in the fatal shooting of a couple in their home more than a decade ago.

Court records show Justin James Walker was charged Thursday in the December 2007 shootings of 65-year-old Jack Denney and his wife, 66-year-old Elaine Denney. No attorney is listed for him.

The Denneys were found dead Christmas Day 2007 when their daughter and her family arrived at the home near Locust Grove to exchange Christmas gifts.
