(WSB Radio) -- A Lithonia man accused of killing his wife and twin 2-year-old boys is being held without bond in the Dekalb County jail.

29-year-old Clayton Ellington is charged with three counts of murder for the blunt force trauma deaths of Berna, Cameron and Christian Ellington.

Dekalb Police spokesman Herschel Grangent tells WSB investigators are still working on a motive, and it appears to be domestic-related.

Ellington originally told police he found the bodies Wednesday night in the family's home on Rambling Way in Lithonia.

19-year-old Sean Fennell, a friend of the suspect, has been charged with giving police false information about the case.

Both men will make their first court appearance Friday afternoon at 5 before a Dekalb County magistrate.
