Accident – Death – Obituary News :
RANKIN COUNTY, Miss — In a shocking turn of events, murder suspect Daniel Callihan, 36, confessed to reporters on Friday that he was responsible for the tragic death of 3-year-old Erin Brunett. The heinous crime occurred following the murder of her mother, Callie Brunett, and the abduction of her siblings, including 6-year-old Jalie Brunett.
During his transport back to Rankin County Jail, Callihan made a startling admission to the media. He stated that he was not under the influence of any drugs and was only taking medication for depression when he committed the crime.
Confession of a Murderer
Speaking to reporters, Callihan said, “Sober, no drugs in my system, I did it. I have no reason for what I did. All I want to say is that I was sober and only on LexaPro – and off LexaPro – and I’m also diagnosed with borderline multiple personality disorder.”
These chilling words have left the community in shock and disbelief as they grapple with the senseless tragedy that has unfolded.
A Troubling Revelation
Callihan further revealed that he was on suicide watch but adamantly stated that he was not suicidal. He went on to express a disturbing sentiment, saying, “I would kill me,” indicating a deep sense of remorse for his actions.
Despite being unrepentant, Callihan declared that he would not fight the charges against him and even welcomed the death penalty. He expressed a preference for lethal injection, stating, “For what I did, lethal injection is the easiest thing for me.”
A Shocking Arrest
In a development that added another layer of complexity to the case, a second suspect, 32-year-old Victoria Cox, was arrested alongside Callihan on Thursday. Tangipahoa Parish Sheriff Daniel Edwards revealed that both individuals had been in an intimate relationship in the recent past.
The involvement of Cox in the case has raised questions about the circumstances that led to the tragic events that unfolded in Rankin County.

On Friday, Rankin County authorities released the charges that Callihan is facing, which include capital murder, sexual battery, and armed robbery. The exact number of counts for each charge was not disclosed, but it is clear that he is facing serious legal repercussions for his actions.
Additionally, Cox is also facing charges of capital murder and sexual battery in connection with the case.
