A couple accused of killing a Publix employee and leaving her body behind a Waffle House in south Fulton County last year has been indicted on murder charges, the Fulton County District Attorney’s Office said in a statement Friday.
Jared Kemp, 19, and girlfriend De'asia Page, 18, each face charges of murder, aggravated assault, armed robbery and first-degree hijacking of a motor vehicle in the Dec. 21 slaying of 58-year-old Toni Abad, Fulton District Attorney spokesman Chris Hopper said.
Authorities allege Page lured Abad by asking for a ride about 10 p.m. that day to an unknown location on Church Street in Fairburn, where Kemp struck the woman multiple times and killed her.

Abad’s body was stuffed in the trunk of her car, which was left at a Waffle House on Campbellton-Fairburn Road, Hopper said. The suspects also took Abad’s cellphone.
Abad’s body was discovered the next day when someone reported a suspicious vehicle sitting behind the Waffle House.
