From Times Staff and Wire Reports
One of five teenagers from a self-styled “vampire clan” arrested in Baton Rouge for two Florida murders waived extradition and will return to Florida to stand trial, authorities said. Dana Lynn Cooper, 19, faces charges in Eustice, Fla., in the Nov. 25 bludgeoning deaths of Richard and Naoma Wendorf, the parents of one suspect. The teenagers, from Murray, Ky., were members of “The Vampire Clan,” a secretive group that police say sucked blood from small animals and each other.
