<div>New details have emerged about the 11-year-old boy who was charged last month with murdering a married couple in New Hampshire, including that the child was the victims&#8217; son whom they adopted from Russia as a toddler nearly a decade ago.<br />
James Eckert, a 48-year-old chiropractor and ultramarathon runner, and his wife of nearly 22 years, 50-year-old Lizette Eckert, also a chiropractor, were fatally shot March 15 in their Alton home.<br />

Police said Lizette Eckert was found dead of a gunshot wound the head.<br />
Jim Eckert, a chiropractor in the area, was rushed to the hospital <a href="https://www.nbcboston.com/news/local/Second-Adult-Dies-in-Alton-New-Hampshire-Shooting-507252961.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">where he later died</a>. Autopsy results revealed his cause of death was also a single gunshot wound to the head.<br />
According to local police, the gunman was the 11-year-old boy who was arrested in nearby woods wearing a pair of pajama pants, but at the time authorities did not provide the relationship between him and the Eckerts.</div>

<div class="mobile-gallery-icon">However, the Eckerts&#8217; pastor has since disclosed to NBC10 Boston that the juvenile suspect was the couple&#8217;s adopted son.<br />
A new expose published by <a class="class" href="https://www.bostonglobe.com/metro/2019/03/30/terror-trespassed-here/Fp5eP9o8zMBpJcNAFCcK3H/story.html?s_campaign=bdc:globewell:trending&;s_campaign=bdc:globewell:trending" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">The Boston Globe</a> shedding light on the secretive Eckert family and their long history of financial woes reveals that the parents, who also had a biological daughter, adopted the 11-year-old and his older brother from a Russian orphanage in 2010, when the boys were two and four years old, respectively.<br />

The adoptions were arranged by the Indiana-based agency KidsFirst Adoption.<br />
Russian laws require American parents to provide updates about their adopted children every year, but according to the head of the Indiana adoption agency, the Eckerts stopped doing that after three years.<br />
The couple&#8217;s friends and family have described the 11-year-old as happy but quiet and shy.<br />
The two Russian siblings and their stepsister were all being homeschooled by their parents, who raised farm animals on their sprawling property, took part in Bible study and did not own a television.</div>

<p class="mol-para-with-font">James was a chiropractor and ultramarathon runner, and his wife of nearly 22 years was also a chiropractor.<br />
According to the Globe, the Eckerts abruptly relocated to New Hampshire from Maine in 2012 after racking up hundreds of thousands of dollars in credit card debt, unpaid student loans and $550,000 in missed mortgage payments.<br />

Pastor Sam Holo, of the Community Church of Alton, said that a few dozen parishioners were close to James and that he had known him for three years.<br />
&#8216;He was a man of integrity,&#8217; Holo said in an interview. &#8216;We’ve lost a good one in that sense.&#8217;</p>

<div class="image-wrap fff-pic">
<div>The two bonded, Holo said, over their Christian faith and their desire to live life as the Bible dictated. Eckert was also passionate about health and recently talked of starting a health website, he said.<br />
James was pronounced dead after he was taken to a hospital in critical condition. Lizette was found inside the family&#8217;s home with gunshot wounds. She was pronounced dead at the scene.<br />
An autopsy revealed they both died from a single gunshot wound to the head. They were laid to rest on March 22.<br />

Their 11-year-old son was initially charged with one count of reckless second-degree murder and one count of attempted murder. The charges filed are under the juvenile system. It has not been confirmed, but he could be facing additional charges now that James Eckert has died from his injuries.<br />
Because of the suspect&#8217;s age, authorities are limiting information made available to the public.<br />
The investigation is ongoing.</div>
