Man arrested after woman found ‘chained like a dog’ at his house ‘admits four killings and is responsible for at least three more’

But police have since revealed that Kohlhepp has also showed officers the locations of two more bodies on his property as authorities continue their investigations into the most recent suspected murders and kidnapping.

The discovery comes after Kala Brown was found shackled like a dog on the accused's property, with the 30-year-old woman telling authorities she had been forced to watch her boyfriend, Charlie Carver, killed.

The local Coroner Rusty Clavanger confirmed that the first human remains found on the 100 acre estate in Spartanburg County, South Carolina were those of Carver.

Authorities say that Carver died from "multiple gunshot wounds."

In a bond hearing for Kohlhepp on Friday, lawyers for the Woodruff Solicitor's Office said Kala witnessed her boyfriend shot dead.

Solicitor Barry Barnette said: "She told us this individual did kill him in her presence."

Authorities revealed Kohlhepp had confessed to the 2003 massacre at a Superbike Motorsports, almost exactly 13 years ago.

The bodies of Scott Ponder, 30, his 52-year-old mother and part-time employee Beverly Guy, and employees Brian Lucas, 29, and Chris Sherbert, 26, were found in 2003.

Kohlhepp's dark past has been revealed in the latest investigations with Prosecutor Barry Barnette saying the man had kidnapped a 14-year-old girl, bound her and raped her in 1986.

Documents obtained by GreenvilleOnline further revealed parole officers were extremely concerned about his behaviour.

Kim Otto wrote it was a "travesty of justice" that the sexual element of the crime had been dropped, saying: “It would appear that his behaviour has been progressively worsening and now, it has escalated to the point where he has sexually assaulted an innocent child.

"One can only speculate as to where the defendant’s behaviour will lead. It is this writer’s opinion that it is this type of individual, one with little or no conscience, who presents the greatest risk to the community."

His records how Kohlhepp was an angry adolescent who once threatened to kill his mother, poured bleach into a goldfish bowl and locked a neighbour's boy in a dog cage for fun.

Another neighbour described him in a pre-sentence report as “a devil on a chain.”

Online prison records show he served about 14 years for the felony. He was released in 2001.

Documents obtained by GreenvilleOnline reveal parole officers were extremely concerned about his behaviour.

Records from the Arizona case obtained by WHNS-TV in South Carolina show that a judge decided in 1987 to transfer the case to adult court partly because of Kohlhepp's aggressive nature.

"At less than the age of 9 this juvenile was impulsive, explosive and preoccupied with sexual content. He has not changed.

"He has been unabatedly aggressive to others and destructive of property since nursery school," the judge wrote.

Brown was only found after authorities received a tip-off, with the missing persons case involving the young woman and her 32-year-old boyfriend dragging over two months.

The missing woman told detectives she had been held in the locked in a 30 feet long and 15 feet wide metal container against her will for two months but was fed regularly.

The accused kidnapper and real estate agent had become increasingly active on social media over the past two months, sharing photographs of his dog appearing to hump his leg as well as a number of properties he was selling.

He also shared information about his upbringing, saying: "in my family you got backhanded for talking back or being disrespectful...actually acting up ended up a spanking that was epic.. you do NOT want to make the same mistake in my family again".

He also told friends he was trying to make the possums on his property his pets.

The family of missing man Charlie Carver released a statement to the media, saying they were overjoyed that Kala had been found.

The family said: "We ask that you continue to pray for Kala's healing and for David's safe return as well. In the meantime, we ask for some time to ourselves as we process events as they unfold."

County Sheriff Chuck Wright previously revealed Kala was "chained inside the container like a dog" and that it was "the grace of God that she was found alive".

He was on the property when cops served the search warrant, WYFF News reported

After the couple went missing, sinister messages were posted on their social media weeks after they failed to show up at a friend's house for dinner.

When someone went to check on them at their home, someone found their beloved dog had been left without food or water and the door was unlocked.

Their car was missing from the driveway and prescription medication was still there, as were their contact lenses and glasses.

The pair didn't make any contact with family, friends, or work colleagues.

A month after their disappearance Charlie’s Facebook suddenly became active.

It said the couple – who live in the United States – had got married and were expecting a baby.

It also said he and Kala were fine – but the post was then deleted.

One update read: “I weren’t crazy, I’d be insane. Sometimes late at night I dig a hole in the backyard to keep the nosy neighbour’s guessing.”
