They also face counts of robbery with a dangerous weapon.
Powell is also a defendant in the murders of James and Janice Harris and James and Peggy Whitley which occurred in the Glenview community of Enfield last summer. He and two other defendants were also indicted for that crime Monday.
Johnson’s murder and the attempted murder of another victim occurred in the Deer Run Drive area of Roanoke Rapids on January 6.
The indictments say money was taken from Johnson, the target of the attempted murder and another victim, which reflects the robbery with a dangerous weapon counts.
The Halifax County Sheriff’s Office said at the time deputies responded to Deer Run Drive shortly after 10:45 a.m. on a call involving multiple shooting victims.
Johnson was found deceased and the other victim was found in critical condition.
