Timmons was facing charges of murder, felonious assault and reckless homicide, as well as five counts of endangering children.
“Upon arrival of the Hamilton Township Police Officers, several children were observed exiting the residence with blood on their persons and clothing,” an officer wrote in the affidavit of a search warrant filed in the case.
Timmons faced 15 years to life in prison if convicted of murder.
He allegedly shot Yocum after returning home from three days away from home, methamphetamine in his system, Warren County Prosecutor David Fornshell said at the time of the indictment.
During the incident in the home’s kitchen, two shots were fired, including one close to Yocum’s neck, Fornshell said.
First responders who helped the children were honored for going beyond the call of duty to care for the children.
