16 year old suspect in triple homicide returns to North Carolina to face murder charges

A 16-year-old charged with three counts of first-degree murder after three of her family members were found dead is back in western North Carolina. Star Grant waived extradition in Tennessee and returned to Asheville on Wednesday, May 13, 2026, at about 12:25 p.m., according to the Buncombe County Sheriff’s Office.

Warrants for Grant, who is being charged as an adult in the deaths of her mother Kim Grant, Travis Grant and his mother, Sharon Grant, were filed with Buncombe County court.

Grant is charged with first-degree murder and conspiracy, along with 28-year-old Devan Loving. Loving and Grant were found and taken into custody in Gatlinburg, Tennessee, on May 8, 2026.

According to Grant’s warrants, the offenses happened on May 1. The bodies of Kim, Travis and Sharon Grant were discovered the evening of May 7, 2026, during a welfare check at 18 Ashworth Drive in Fairview.

Arrest warrants for Grant claim the 16-year-old “unlawfully, willfully and feloniously did of malice aforethought kill and murder” Travis, Kim and Sharon Grant. Regarding the felony conspiracy charge, the warrants say she “unlawfully and feloniously did conspire with Devan Oneal Loving to commit the felony first-degree murder against Travis Grant, Kimberly Grant and Sharon Grant by planning and conspiring among each other before carrying out the murder.”

According to the Sevier County Detention Center, Devan Loving is still listed as an inmate there as of Wednesday afternoon. Buncombe County authorities anticipate Loving to be extradited to western North Carolina later in the week.
