Jason Massey
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jason Massey was an American murderer who was executed in 2001 for the murders of two people.
Born in 1973 in Ellis County, Texas, Massey was neglected and abused by his drug addicted mother. By his teens, he was a juvenile delinquent with a lengthy criminal record, mostly for stalking and torturing animals. His mother once sent him to a psychiatrist after discovering his journals, in which he detailed his fantasies about rape and murder, his hero worship of Charles Manson, his avowed Satanism, and his strong desire to become a serial killer.
On July 26, 1993, he murdered two teenagers in his hometown. He was quickly connected to the crime by forensic evidence and arrested, shortly after getting out of jail for animal cruelty. In October of the following year, he was found guilty of the murders and sentenced to death. While on Death Row, he claimed to have converted to Christianity.
His crime was documented on a TV series called Forensic Files.
He was executed by lethal injection on April 3, 2001.
