Two New Jersey residents have been charged in connection with the killing of two men, after they were found dead in a burning car registered to Real Housewives of New Jersey's Kim DePaola.

According to the New York Daily News, the two suspects were arrested yesterday (March 20) and are being held in a local county jail without bond.

The pair have reportedly both been charged with murder, while one of them has also been charged with aggravated assault and unlawful possession of a weapon.

The two victims were found in DePaola's burning car in the early hours of Friday (March 17) morning. They are both said to have been shot, and were dead when discovered.

Although the car is registered in DePaola's name, it's usually driven by her son Chris Camiscioli, who has also not been connected to the incident.

When she heard about the killings, Kim said: "These people who did this are savages and should first rot in prison, and then they will definitely rot in hell.

"No one should die like this. And no mother should have to be told that their son cannot even be identified.

"For four hours, I thought it was my child who died. It was my son's car, so for four hours I was in agony."
