A federal grand jury in New Mexico on Wednesday indicted a Bureau of Indian Affairs employee on four second-degree murder charges for the deaths of two couples.

Lloyd Larson, 39, faces life in prison for the deaths of the Nebraska residents. He was facing a maximum of 24 years for involuntary manslaughter charges already laid against him.

Larson allegedly ran head-on into their car on a stretch of highway in New Mexico passing through the Laguna Pueblo Reservation. He has a record of drunk driving.
