Sedgwick County District Attorney Marc Bennett charged a 21-year-old Wichita man with capital murder Wednesday, Sept. 30, in the shooting deaths of his parents and sister.

Juan Valenzuela-Silva faces the charge in the Sept. 26 killings of his father, Juan Valenzuela-Ayala, 49; his mother, Brenda Silva-Cervantes, 40; and his sister, Daisy Valenzuela, 25, at their home in southeast Wichita. He is also charged with one count of aggravated endangering a child, KWCH reported.

Valenzuela-Silva is being held in the Sedgwick County Jail on a $100 million bond. His initial court appearance in Sedgwick County District Court was scheduled for Wednesday afternoon. No defense attorney for Valenzuela-Silva was identified in court records as of Wednesday.

Bennett's office said prosecutors have not yet decided whether to seek the death penalty. Under Kansas law, prosecutors have up to one week after a capital murder defendant's arraignment to notify the court and the defense of that decision.

Capital murder is the only crime in Kansas eligible for a death sentence. A conviction carries either life in prison without parole or the death penalty.

The charging document accuses Valenzuela-Silva of killing more than one person as part of the same act or transaction, according to the Wichita Eagle. Under Kansas law, capital murder applies to the intentional and premeditated killing of more than one person in the same act or related transactions.

The aggravated child endangerment count alleges Valenzuela-Silva caused a child younger than 6 to be placed in a situation endangering the child's life, body or health on the same day as the killings. Three other people were inside the home during the shooting: a 17-year-old male, a 17-year-old female and a 2-year-old girl. None were injured.

Police described the Sept. 26 shooting as a domestic incident. Valenzuela-Silva was living at the home, and the 911 call came from someone in the household. Officers responded at about 11:29 a.m. that day, according to a Wichita Police Department news release.

Investigators used the FLOCK Automated License Plate Reader (ALPR) system to track Valenzuela-Silva's vehicle after the shooting. A Butler County sheriff's deputy, with help from the Kansas Highway Patrol Air Support Unit, stopped him south of Augusta and took him into custody without incident that afternoon.

Wichita Police Capt. Aaron Moses said on Sept. 26 that officers had very limited prior contact with Valenzuela-Silva. He had one prior case with the department for a vehicle accident, no warrants and no criminal history.

"This has just been a terrible day for this family," Wichita Police Chief Joe Sullivan told reporters on Sept. 26. "… We're going to continue to work very hard to get them the answers that I'm sure that they so desperately want."

Brenda Silva-Cervantes' sister, Guadalupe Vazquez, set up a GoFundMe to help cover funeral expenses for the three family members.

Kansas has not executed anyone since 1965, according to the Death Penalty Information Center. Nine men are on the state's death row. The last death sentence in Sedgwick County was handed down in 2004.
