"The victims said that Capps awakened them at 3 a.m., gathered them in the living room at gunpoint and refused to allow them to leave," Aaron detailed.
Capps’ 60-year-old wife and 23-year-old stepdaughter explained to police that he continuously threatened to kill them if they attempted to call anyone. The two were able to escape the situation when he fell asleep.
