Friends of Merced family kidnapped reacts to deaths, arrest of suspect

Edwin Kainth, also a friend of the family for the past 17 years, said he was designated to speak on behalf of the family. Kainth said the suspect had previously worked as a truck driver for the Singh brothers, for a short period of time, and that they had parted on bad terms. “The entire Merced County is kind of shaken,” Kainth said. “(Wednesday), when they recovered the bodies of four innocent family members, that will never be forgotten.”
