INQUIRER: A 14-year-old Camden girl was charged with murder today in the grisly slayings of a man and a woman found buried last month in the backyard of a South Camden rowhouse. The girl was among a group of at least 10 people who beat and strangled Muriah Ashley Huff, 22, of Cinnaminson on Feb. 22, authorities said. Members of the same group also killed Huff’s boyfriend, Michael Hawkins, 23, of Mount Holly. Hawkins was bound and beaten for hours – until most of the bones in his face were broken – and then shot and stabbed repeatedly, said Jason Laughlin, spokesman for the Camden County Prosecutor’s Office. The couple were buried before dawn Feb. 23 in one grave, Laughlin said. MORE
