Rhoden took to Instagram on Tuesday to express his innocence.
According to his Instagram post however, he called the charges, “erroneous” and " accusatory.”
“These are words of my own intellect and no one else’s,” Rhoden wrote on Instagram. “Meanwhile, I can be reached via mail or dm. I most definitely appreciate any and all positivity! Love, B.”
Investigators say Rhoden duct-taped and zip-tied Valdez and Pierson before driving them to the golf course, where both victims were found shot to death in the bed of a pickup truck on the 10th hole.
Rhoden is accused of then shooting and killing Siller who just happened to be at the golf course.
