Ryan Coles is a 28-year old resident of West Deptford Township, New Jersey.
He lived with his parents, Edward Coles Jr. and Rosemarie Coles in a home on Pennfield Drive.

Murder of Edward Coles Jr. and Rosemarie Coles
On August 25, 2016 Ryan Coles beat his parents, Edward Coles Jr. and Rosemarie Coles to death with both a chair and his hands.
The bodies were found after a relative called the police after visiting the couple on August 26, 2016 after trying to reach them on the phone.
Ryan has been charged with two counts of murder.
The autoposies of the bodies showed that Edward Coles Jr. and Rosemarie Coles died of blunt trauma.
Ryan Coles was taken from the house on Friday to Inspira Medical Center Woodbury for a mental evaluation, authorities said.
He was then transferred to the Salem County Correctional Facility in Mannington Township, where he was being held Saturday on $1 million bail.
A neighbor, Claudia Rojvilawan had said that police had been called to the home multiple times.
"He seemed a little detached, depressed," said neighbor John Ferencsik.
"We didn't really know that, just know the impression I had was he was a little bit off."
