The Maine State Police says that Perley Goodrich Jr., was charged Friday, several hours after he was captured at a Newport convenience store.
A waitress recognized the 45-year-old Goodrich and called police.
He offered no resistance.
Police have been searching for Goodrich since Monday night after Goodrich's father, 76-year-old Perley Goodrich Sr., was shot and killed and his mother, 64-year-old Sandra Goodrich, was beaten at the home they all shared.
Goodrich is charged with murder and aggravated assault.
Jail officials didn't have any record of Goodrich having a lawyer.
