A Dallas man has been charged with murdering 11 elderly women, which comes in addition to his 2018 charges for killing another elderly woman.
The Dallas Morning News reported: “Billy Chemirmir, 46, has been in the Dallas County Jail since March 2018 facing a capital murder charge in the death of 81-year-old Lu Thi Harris.
“Chemirmir, a former health care worker, was indicted Tuesday on six additional counts of capital murder in Dallas County and five counts in Collin County. Chemirmir has also been accused of trying to suffocate two other elderly women in Collin County.”
Chemirmir has been living in the US illegally. He was charged in the deaths of Phyllis Payne, 91, Phoebe Perry, 94, Norma French, 85, Doris Gleason, 92, Minnie Campbell, 83, and Carolyn MacPhee, 81.
He also murdered Rosemary Curtis, 76, Mary Brooks, 87, Martha Williams, 80, Miriam Nelson, 81, and Ann Conklin, 82.
He has been in custody since March 2018 after the death of an 81-year-old woman, Lu Thi Harris.
The break in the case came in when he forced his way into a 91-year-old woman’s apartment and told her to “go to bed, Don’t fight me.” The woman was suffocated with a pillow and robbed.
Paramedics managed to revive her and she told investigators that the attacker had taken her jewelry box. Officers identified Chemirmir from a license plate number and found him days later.
Chief Gregory Rushin said that Chemirmir used his health care experience “to his advantage in targeting and exploiting seniors, some of the most vulnerable people in our community.”
In addition, Chemirmir is facing immigration-related charges for illegally living in the United States.
