Lemaricus Davidson was arraigned in federal court in Knoxville Friday morning on charges he carjacked a murdered Knoxville couple. The bodies of Chris Newsom, age 23 and his girlfriend, 21 year-old Channon Christian were found earlier this week. Three more men have also been charged in connection with the crime. The federal complaint made available Friday morning reveals details of the investigation linking Davidson to the murders. Federal investigators note in the complaint that Davidson's fingerprint was found inside Channon Christian's 2005 Toyota 4-Runner, which was found in the same area as Newsom's body. The fingerprint of Davidson, a convicted felon, led authorities to his last known address, at 2316 Chipman Avenue in Knoxville. Channon Christian's body was found inside the house. Officers also recovered an M-1 Carbine rifle from the Chipman address.
