Right here in my back yard in Terre Haute,IN!
Here is the first 5 scumbags to die!
Lezmond Mitchell, 37, who killed a woman and her granddaughter
Mr. Mitchell was convicted in 2003 of killing a grandmother and her 9-year-old granddaughter within the Navajo Nation in northeastern Arizona.
Major crimes within the Navajo Nation fall under federal jurisdiction when either the perpetrators or victims — or, as in this case, both — are members of the nation. A jury decided that Mr. Mitchell should face the death penalty.
Wesley Purkey, 67, who killed a 16-year-old girl and an 80-year-old woman
Mr. Purkey, of Lansing, Kan., kidnapped a 16-year-old girl, Jennifer Long, in Kansas City, Mo., and brought her to his house, where he raped her repeatedly and, after killing her, dismembered and burned her body.
The Kansas City Star
reported last year that the girl’s murder in 1998 was nearly forgotten until one of her childhood friends contacted a true crime podcast, which featured her in an
episode. Federal prosecutors pursued the case because Mr. Purkey had brought the teenager across state lines, from Missouri to Kansas.
Mr. Purkey was sentenced to death for the crime of kidnapping a child resulting in the child’s death, according to the Justice Department.
Months before that murder, Mr. Purkey had used a hammer to kill Mary Bales, an 80-year-old woman who suffered from polio. It was after he was convicted of that slaying in state court that
he began talking about killing the teenager, and eventually confessed, although he retracted his admission once prosecutors sought the death penalty, according to The Star.
Daniel Lee, 46, who wanted to create a white republic
Daniel Lee, a white supremacist who lived in Oklahoma, was
convicted in 1999 of murdering an Arkansas gun dealer, William Mueller, as well as his wife, Nancy Mueller, and her 8-year-old daughter, Sarah Powell.
Mr. Lee broke into the family’s home in Tilly, Ark., in January 1996 with an accomplice, Chevie Kehoe, and together they suffocated the family before throwing them into the Illinois Bayou, according to the Justice Department. The bodies were not found until June, when a woman who was fishing discovered a shoe and a bone.
Mr. Kehoe had stepped in when Mr. Lee said he could not kill a child, The New York Times
reported in an article about the murders in 1999, although Mr. Lee was convicted of three counts of murder.
Alfred Bourgeois, 55, who tortured and killed his daughter
Mr. Bourgeois, a trucker from La Place, La., was sentenced to death in 2004 after he was convicted of murdering his 2-year-old daughter at Naval Air Station Corpus Christi, making it a federal crime.
At his trial, eight people who knew Mr. Bourgeois, including family members, said they had been threatened or assaulted by him,
according to The Plainview Daily Herald in Texas. They said he had tortured and repeatedly beaten his daughter, referred to as “JG” in court documents, in the months before killing her in June 2002.
Dustin Honken, 51, convicted of killing five people, including two children
Mr. Honken, of Mason City, Iowa, killed five people in 1993 with the help of his girlfriend, who was once one of only two women on federal death row.
Described as the kingpin of a methamphetamine operation, Mr. Honken killed two men who were fellow drug dealers, Terry DeGeus and Gregory Nicholson, as well as Mr. Nicholson’s girlfriend, Lori Duncan, and her two daughters, ages 6 and 10.
The Justice Department said the two men had planned to testify against Mr. Honken.
Iowa does not have the death penalty, but Mr. Honken was found guilty of 17 federal crimes — including tampering with witnesses, conspiracy to commit murder, and multiple counts of a federal crime known as the
kingpin statute — which meant he could be executed by the federal government. His execution is scheduled for Jan. 15.
