Eric Matthew Frein exits the Pike County Courthouse with police officers after an arraignment. A bruised and gaunt Frein, captured after a seven-week manhunt and held with the handcuffs of a Pennsylvania trooper he is accused of slaying, was held without bail on Friday after facing murder charges in court. A massive police presence surrounded the 31-year-old self-proclaimed survivalist, who prosecutors say will face the death penalty, as he was escorted in and out of the courthouse for a preliminary arraignment on a first-degree murder charge and one count of homicide of a police officer, among other charges.
