(Brunswick, GA ) 22 year old Guy Heinze, Jr., whose frantic voice on a 9-1-1 tape says "they're all dead, my dad, my uncle, my cousins," appeared in court this morning in Brunswick. Heinze, Jr., told authorities he had returned home to the New Hope Plantation Mobile Home Park early Saturday (located near Darien) to find his entire family had been murdered. Eight of the nine victims have died in what's being called a "mass murder" in Glynn County. The ninth victim, a small child, still clings to life at Memorial Health in Savannah.
Heinze, Jr. was taken into custody Saturday morning on charges that include drug possession, obstruction and tampering with evidence. He appeared in court this morning and has been given a $20,000 bond, with special conditions that include house arrest other than for work. He's also been ordered to wear an ankle monitor.
The amount of bond was agreed upon by defense attorneys, prosecutors and police detectives investigating the case. There's no word yet on whether Heinze, Jr., will actually be able to make bond or whether anyone he knows will be putting up the bail for him.
Glynn County police have not said that Heinze, Jr., is a suspect in the killings. They continue to seek help from the public and remind the public there is a $25,000 reward for information.
