Three white men were arrested and charged for the cold-blooded murder of two young black men who were found dismembered outside of Oklahoma City, Circa reports.

Ramon Smith and Jarron Moreland, both 21-years-old, were first reported missing on April 14. On April 18, their dismembered bodies were found in a pond.

That day, police arrested Kevin Garcia-Boettler, 22, Johnny Shane Barker, 43 and the 16-year-old brother of Garcia-Boettler. The 16-year-old is suspected of shooting the two murdered men. The young white men's mother, Crystal Rachelle Boettler, was later charged with accessory.

This literally appears to be a modern day lynching.

The 16-year-old has been charged with first-degree murder, second-degree murder, unlawful removal of a dead body, desecration of human corpse and possessing a firearm after delinquent adjudication. The elder Garcia-Boettler has been charged with accessory after the fact and unlawful removal of a dead body. Barker has been charged with accessory after the fact, unlawful removal of a body and desecration of a human corpse as well.

According to court records, Garcia-Boettler claims he drove his teen brother to meet Smith and Moreland for a gun purchase arranged through Craigslist. Garcia-Boettler said once they met, Moreland got into the backseat of his van.

“When [Moreland and Smith] entered the vehicle, the white men said they heard a gun being racked,” said Sergeant Jeremy Lewis of the Moore Police Department. “So one of them fired four rounds.”

Garcia-Boettler also said that he and his little brother met up with his mother's boyfriend Barker to dispose of the victims' bodies. The three men burned Moreland and Smith's clothes, dismembered their bodies and attached to them cinder blocks before dumping them into the pond .

“We’re just glad that we get some closure and we found him … we needed this,” Moreland’s uncle, Anthony Anderson, told KFOR, as he comforted the victim's sobbing grandmother.
