US EditionProsecutors charge Waukesha teen in deaths of his mom, stepfather
- Nikita Casap, a 17-year-old, has been charged with two counts of first-degree intentional homicide and other offenses in Waukesha County, Wisconsin, related to the deaths of his mother, Tatiana Casap, and stepfather, Donald Mayer, which occurred in their Waukesha home in February.
- A welfare check was requested on the family on February 28 after a family member reported not hearing from them since February 23, leading deputies to discover the decomposing bodies of Donald Mayer, 51, and Tatiana Casap, 35, at their residence on Cider Hills Drive.
- Nikita Casap allegedly shot Tatiana Casap multiple times and Donald Mayer in the back of the head on February 11, then continued to live in the home with their bodies for nearly two weeks, communicating with others from their accounts and even recording videos of the scene.
- According to court documents, a classmate reported that Casap had mentioned plans to kill his parents and discussed communicating with a Russian man about overthrowing the U.S. Government, and Mayer's manager said he had been in text message contact with Mayer from Feb. 13 through Feb. 25, where Mayer claimed he was sick and could not talk on the phone.
- Casap was apprehended in Kansas while driving a stolen vehicle that contained a gun, driver's licenses of the deceased, unused ammunition, shell casings, and items related to the homicide investigation, and he now faces charges including homicide, hiding a corpse, theft, and identity theft, with bail set at $1 million and a preliminary hearing scheduled for April 9.
