CLARKTON A Clarkton woman, along with the adopted daughter of one of two people found dead in a home there earlier this month, led law enforcement on a car chase Tuesday before being arrested in the slayings, officials said.
Nona Belle Strickland, 18, and Keyonte Cassandra-Yvette Poole, 21, are each charged with first-degree murder and robbery with a dangerous weapon in the deaths of Sean Patrick Burke, 51, and Robbie Darlene Hildreth, 58, according to a news release from the Bladen County Sheriff’s Office.
