Thirty-six-year-old James H. Long Jr. will remain behind bars on drug and first degree murder charges. He's accused of killing Vicki Truax, one of the victims in the Orange County double murder, and was denied bond.

Truax, along with William Browning, was found shot to death in a pickup truck early Friday morning, March 18. This happened in the front yard of a home along Old Office Road in Orange County.

Browning's ex-wife, Robin Browning, is also in jail, facing drug and firearm charges. Police say Long and Browning were living together and believe they were with each other at the time of the murders.

Both are being held at the Central Virginia Regional Jail. At this time, there are still no charges for the death of William Browning. The Orange County Sheriff's Office says the investigation is still ongoing.
