Second arrest made in Coweta County double murder

Coweta County deputies say they’ve made a second arrest in a double murder from last January.

He joins Howard Dennis in the Coweta County Jail. Both are charged with murder in the deaths of the two men during a home invasion at this house on Deep South Road.
