CLEVELAND – Terrell Silver, 34, has been indicted by a Cuyahoga County grand jury for the murder of four individuals in Cleveland in 2019, according to a statement by Cuyahoga County Prosecutor Michael C. O’Malley.
The victims included two females aged 18 and 19 and two males aged 20 and 23. Silver allegedly approached them inside a residence near East 144th Street and Kinsman Road in Cleveland where they were staying, and shot them multiple times as they lay on two mattresses on the floor.
The bodies of the victims, including the 18-year-old who was five and a half months pregnant, were discovered decomposed on September 21, 2019, by the Cleveland Division of Police.
The investigation was led by the Cleveland Homicide Initiative, comprising the Cleveland Division of Police Homicide Unit, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and the Ohio Attorney General’s Bureau of Criminal Investigation, with assistance from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives and the Cuyahoga County Forensic Science Lab. DNA and gun tool mark evidence reportedly linked Terrell Silver to the crime, resulting in his indictment on 15 counts of Aggravated Murder, one count each of Aggravated Burglary, Aggravated Robbery, Having Weapons Under Disability, and Tampering With Evidence.
Officials said Silver knew at least one of the victims and arrived with intent to kill. Although, a motive was never established.
