BROTHER DANNY DAYLE DIANNA DON DR_KROP EDWARD HARRY JOHN JUDGE LEGRAN MAN NARRATOR NEWS_REPORTER PAIGE ROD SHERIFF STUDENT WOMAN PAIGE Gainesville is a small town, and nothing bad happens in small towns. DON We find two college students. This was not a typical crime scene. These bodies were posed. LEGRAN Then we had another crime scene. DON This was one of our own. It really becomes personal. WOMAN Now there are five victims. MAN The killer set up this crime scene for its shock value. DAYLE This was all part of this individual's sexual fantasy. LEGRAN We found this tape, and it had no markings on it. DON This person told her, I like to stick people, and that caught my attention. DAYLE There's a hit, and they enter the room with the envelope in hand, and they say, you are not gonna believe this. NARRATOR The University of Florida campus is buzzing with the excitement of the start of the school year. PAIGE The parents felt safe, them coming to Gainesville, because Gainesville is a small town, and nothing bad happens in small towns. DIANNA At that time there had never been any really horrible crimes of anything around Gainesville, nobody ever thought of it. Most people didn't even lock their doors. NARRATOR Sonya Larson and Christina Powell recently moved in together at the University of Florida. They met in the dorms over the summer. Sonya is studying engineering, Christina is interested in architecture. LEGRAN The parents of Christina Powell had not been able to reach her for a couple of days, and they came to Gainesville, and they couldn't get no answer at the door. So, the they called the Gainesville Police Department. They had to break in a door, which entered straight into Sonya Larson's bedroom. DON They discovered a rather gruesome scene. They find Sonya on the bed, stabbed to death. NARRATOR 18yearold Sonya Larson had been an honor student at her high school, where she also played softball. She taught Sunday School, and sang in her church's choir. DON They secured the scene, and then they began to examine it for evidence. It appeared as though she'd been there a day or two. She had last spoken with her parents just a few days before that. This was not a typical crime scene. What was striking about this particular scene was the posing of the victim on the bed. LEGRAN The way she was positioned on the end of the bed, wouldn't be a natural position for someone sleeping. DON Sonya was pulled to the edge of the bed, her legs were draped over the edge. You could see the bedspreads pulled with her, her arms were up in the air. We did find some residue on our victim's wrists, that would indicate that the victim had been bound by a duct tape, and that duct tape had been removed from the body. NARRATOR Detectives searched downstairs and make another gruesome discovery. LEGRAN While they were checking the apartment, they found Christina Powell, um, spread out on the living room floor. NARRATOR 17yearold Christina Powell had been on her high school softball and volleyball teams, and was also the editor of her high school yearbook. DON Like Sonya Larson, Christina had also been raped and posed. The posing was definitely deliberate. It was done for its shock value for whoever was to enter that room, this is what you would see. LEGRAN I don't think any of our law enforcement officers that were exposed to these crime scenes had ever seen anything like that. LEGRAN When we rolled her over, we discovered stab wounds in the middle of her back. There was a tshirt found that had been cut from the waste seam all the way up to the neckline. That indicated to us that she had been bound, and to remove this garment, he had to cut it off of her. There was some napkins found on the kitchen counter, that had semen on them. DON There was a bottle of detergent that was found at the scene. After our perpetrator had done his deed, he then used the detergent to wipe the body down. NARRATOR While searching the home, the forensic team finds a clue near the backdoor. LEGRAN The killer used what appeared to be a screwdriver to pry open the door leading into the kitchen area. DON There was impressions in the doorframe itself. LEGRAN It left several marks. We had a good piece of evidence there. It's like a fingerprint, if you find the screwdriver. It's like finding the gun that matches the bullet. We just need to find the screwdriver. DON Homicides are crimes of passion, for the most part, but this was just something evil. We felt as though we were looking at someone that was just a monster. Who could have done this, and why? What's the motive? You're gonna canvass the neighborhood. You're gonna look at anybody that may have reason to commit this heinous crime. That's where we're gonna start. We were hoping that this was just gonna be an isolated incident, and we would be able to solve this pretty quickly. JOHN There's nothing more awful than to receive that kind of call, where they say two of your students have been murdered. It's a call that um, carries a punch. This is a catastrophic event. NARRATOR Just hours after Sonya and Christina's bodies were found, police get another call, about another young woman who may be missing. DON Christa Hoyt was a dispatcher with the Alachua County Sheriff's office. This particular night she failed to show up for work. The Alachua County Sheriff's office was very well aware of what had transpired at the Williamsburg Apartments. Her supervisor was concerned. They dispatched a deputy sheriff to Christa's residence. LEGRAN When the deputies arrived, they tried to get her to respond to the door. No response. The deputy sheriff went down in her backyard, looked into the window with his flashlight. He saw something really, really, really bad. DON Then the deputy entered the residence, to find another horrific scene. Blood everywhere. She was raped, she was stabbed, and her torso had been cut open with a knife. LEGRAN She had been disemboweled. She had been posed on the side of her waterbed, with her feet on the ground, her arms on her thighs. NARRATOR Christa Hoyt's body has been posed, just like Sonya Larson and Christina Powell's, but the killer has taken it a monstrous step further. DON The most horrific part was the decapitated head had been placed on a bookshelf, and was looking back at her decapitated body. DON Christa had been with the sheriff's office. She was starting in the dispatch capacity, hoping to make a career of it. DIANNA Christa was an amazing person. She had brilliant blue eyes. She had a beautiful smile. DIANNA She was called glowworm at school because she smiled all the time, and was a very happy person. When we were notified about Christa's death, I could not figure out, how would she be dead? What does this mean? You know, what had happened to her? DIANNA All these police officers in uniforms, and in plain clothes, coming into my house. You could see that they didn't know what to say. These were the officers that worked with this sweet person, and they were in horror from the whole thing. And they are trying to put on a good front for her family, and they know how it's going to affect us. This is what a monster does. DON This was one of our own. When a member of the law enforcement community becomes a victim, then it really becomes personal. PAIGE The person who did this crime had control over everything. When would it end, who was going to be next? DON Some students said, we see this guy hanging around. He's always carrying a knife. He was a pretty strong suspect. He assumed a couple of different identities. NARRATOR Just hours after the discovery of two grisly murders at the University of Florida, police find a third student, Christa Hoyt, dead in her apartment. LEGRAN There was several consistencies. The posing of the body on the edge of the waterbed was one of the significant points. There was a bra and a shirt that was found on the bed, that had been cut just like Christina Powell. She had tape residue on her arms, and Christa had one knife wound to her back. The killer entered through the sliding backdoor, again with a screwdriver, prying it open. As far as the size, the width of the blade, the characteristics of the pry marks was similar to the characteristics of crime scene one at Williamsburg. There was so much similarities, that we felt reasonably sure that the same perpetrator had done all three murders. DON From scene one to scene two, was a very short amount of time, probably about eight or nine hours. This was taking place so quickly, we weren't sure exactly what we had, but we knew there was a monster out there we had to get. We had an escalation, now we had a decapitation. Our killer was feeling more emboldened in his activity. NARRATOR The behavioral team quickly puts together a profile. DON Because of the heinous nature of these crimes. There was a theory this may have been a revenge motive. There may have been something in their background, that caused them to single out these victims. DAYLE This is a person not in a relationship with somebody, that's gonna oversee them. They're gonna be unemployed, or in a job where they're free to roam about during the daytime, and during the nighttime. DON We were looking for a white male, that was in the age range of 24 to maybe 35, somewhere in that area, someone that had a history of some psychological issues, someone that may have been scarred, either emotionally or physically. DAYLE This was all part of this individual's sexual fantasy. He had thought about this, he had rehearsed it in his brain. He had selected a victim that met his criteria. The more prepared, the more sophisticated the criminal, the more sophisticated the crime. LEGRAN I started canvasing the neighbors in the apartment complexes. I talked to everyone there to see if they saw anything. We found nothing that led us to the killer. PAIGE When I first heard through different members of law enforcement that the bodies had been posed, because I grew up in a police family, I realized it had to have been done for shock value. I think it was for the first time in my life I ever really felt fear. DON The north central area, especially Gainesville and Alachua County were just gripped with fear. PAIGE The phone in the newsroom just rang nonstop. Should I leave, should I stay? What do you think they should do? JOHN We had a rather substantial exodus of students who left. STUDENT I'm leaving, my parents are coming to get me and I'm going home. JOHN You can be sure that this university and this community is doing everything possible to apprehend the perpetrator. DON The ones that stayed, especially the females, they began to call friends, and they started rooming together. STUDENT Three uf us slept in one room, because we were definitely shaken up. DON Just 'cause there's safety in numbers. At least that's what they thought. The National Guard was called in by the governor. The Florida Highway Patrol participated. Florida Department of Law Enforcement came into the investigation. NARRATOR Authorities expand the hunt statewide, creating a special task force to catch what they believe is a serial killer. STUDENT Students and anyone else in this area show know that the killer has not been apprehended, and therefore could assume that he is still in this area. LEGRAN We had a killer on the loose, and every possible thing that could be looked at, was looked at. NARRATOR And then, the first forensic evidence returns from the lab. LEGRAN At each one of the scenes there were biological evidence that had been left behind by the killer. Body fluid that had been collected, where the killer had left his semen. Back then, DNA was brand new, and just being used, and it took weeks to get a DNA profile. DON But, you can tell somebody's blood type pretty quick. Our perpetrator was a secretor. NARRATOR It's a huge discovery. The killer secretes his blood type into other bodily fluids. DON Saliva, a teardrop, semen, those kind of bodily fluids, we would be able to determine what his blood type was. We were able to determine that our perpetrator's blood type was a B. Well that was a critical piece of information. LEGRAN Forensic investigators were still processing Christa Hoyt's crime scene, when we received a call that a bank robbery had just occurred, a couple of blocks away. NARRATOR In a peaceful community with very little violent crime, authorities believed having three brutal homicides, and a bank robbery, in such a short timeframe, is no coincidence. DON We were hoping there was a connection, in some form or fashion, with our homicides. LEGRAN A couple of us responded over there. The perpetrator had run out of the bank, and the dye pack had exploded. We called the canines out, we tracked it. The canine tracked the perpetrator back to a campsite. They did not find the perpetrator that ran from them. DON They found a bag full of money, and the money was painted with a red dye indicative of the dye packs from bank robberies. They found a handgun, a ski mask, along with assorted jewelry. And there was also a little small cassettetype player. There was a screwdriver there, and that caught my attention. NEWS REPORTER It's a grim start to the fall semester, as Florida students go to their classes under a cloud of terror. NARRATOR Investigators in Gainesville, Florida are on the hunt for a killer whose mark is grotesquely posing his victim's bodies. While chasing a suspect in a nearby bank robbery, they may have stumbled upon a clue. DON There was a screwdriver there, and that caught my attention. We were hoping that we could connect that screwdriver found at the campsite, in some form or fashion with our homicides. NARRATOR Police immediately focus on whether their bank robber and their killer could be one in the same. Investigators turn to the screwdriver to see if it's a match. DON We looked at the tool marks, on the door jambs and the sliding glass doors, that we had collected. NARRATOR Forensics uses these tool marks to determine the manufacturer, a Stanley brand screwdriver. LEGRAN The screwdriver we found at the campsite, was a Workman's Choice brand screwdriver, not the same brand as what the expert was telling us we needed to be looking for. DON And as a result, those two cases were bifurcated, and the robbery unit followed up with the robbery evidence, and the homicide unit focused on the homicides itself. NARRATOR Detectives still have no leads on the killer, who leaves his distinctive mark of positioning his victims in vulgar poses. It's two days into the investigation of three young women who were brutally murdered, when some University of Florida students are unable to reach their friends. DON They contact the maintenance man and ask him to check. The maintenance man opens the door, immediately sees a white female on the floor of the apartment. Law enforcement responds, and we find two college students, a male and a female, both slain in the apartment. They were able to identify Tracey Paules, and Manny Taboada, two university students. NARRATOR Manuel "Manny" Toboada, was a high school football player. He had just graduated from community college, and was starting his junior year in architecture at the university. LEGRAN They had found Manny with defensive wounds on his arms, and cast off blood on the ceiling, and walls. NARRATOR Tracey Paules was about to graduate and attend law school at the University of Florida. Both were just 23 years old. LEGRAN Tracey was posed. She had received five stab wounds to her back. There was a glisten on her body, that appeared to be some type of soap. DON Tracey was discovered to have been pulled from her bedroom, dragged by her heels. There's a blood trail going from her bedroom, down the hallway, where she's just left, positioned similar to the other girls. Again, we had forced entry on a sliding door in the back. We had blood drippings in front of the sink, as though the killer may have washed up at the sink. NARRATOR The bodies brutally slain, and then posed. It's the same killer's mark. DON We knew that we were already dealing with a monster, but this was a very sick and demented individual that would not only perpetrate this kind of crime, but then set up this crime scene for its shock value. DAYLE Upon my arrival, I was allowed access into Gator Wood, and walked into the scene. Tracey's body was still on the floor, slightly away from her room and Manny's room. Crime scenes are so different in terms of how the offender interacts with the victim, and how they interact with the scenes. It was clear pretty quickly that Manny was just in the wrong place at the wrong time, and the offender found him and eliminated him quickly. Tracey was the intended victim of this offender. He spent a long time with Tracey, and I think that that was very fulfilling to the offender, because he got to enjoy how traumatized she was, waiting to die. He sexually battered her, and stabbed her to death. When Manny died, that just ratcheted up the anxiety so much more. Here's a big, strong healthy guy. How could something happen to him? You are not safe, no matter who you are, no matter where you are. JOHN I'm walking by myself, and the campus is deserted because everybody is staying in their rooms and people are being careful. And this car comes by that recognizes me, stopped, backs up, opens the door, and said, Mister President, you told us never to walk alone, get in the car, and they drove me home. NARRATOR Police have received hundreds of tips, but it is a tip from the students themselves that they take notice of. DON A person had come to our attention, by some concerned students, that said, you know we see this guy hanging around these apartment complexes. He's always carrying a knife. He's always hanging out in the woods, and he's just strange. LEGRAN He's been a felon for years. DAYLE He idolized Ted Bundy. DON They came back with an exact match on DNA. He's our guy. We got him. This is the monster we've been looking for. NARRATOR Police act on a tip from students about a man lurking around the University of Florida campus, and set out to determine whether that man could be their murder suspect. DAYLE A lot of people called in tips, saying that he wore combat fatiguetype clothing, stalking around and peeping. NARRATOR Students tell police the suspect is named Edward Humphrey. He is an 18yearold student at the University of Florida. DON We were very interested in Ed Humphrey, because of the strange hours that he kept, the way he kept himself. We had reports coming in from various restaurants that he was frequenting, that he was in there at two or three o'clock in the morning. He was very disheveled, and when information came out about the student homicides, he would laugh. Based on the information we'd been given about his habits, he was a pretty strong suspect. We put him under surveillance, 247. And he leaves the area and goes down to Indian River County, and while he's down there, he wasn't there very long, and he has a major confrontation with his grandmother. As a result, we had made an arrest on him for assault and battery on his grandmother. Since he was on our radar, and he had engaged in this criminal, violent activity, it did enable us to keep him in jail. We were able then to follow up with our leads on him, and at least if he was the perpetrator, we knew that for a while the citizens were safe. NEWS REPORTER He's being held on battery charges, with an unusually high bail of one million dollars. Humphrey's injured grandmother made a brief appearance at the jail. The Sheriff says Humphrey fits their profile. SHERIFF The violent behavior that he displayed towards his grandmother, making those type statements and sounds. NARRATOR It's been five days since the killings began, and the police finally have a suspect in custody. DON Some of our investigators from FDLE sat down with him and interviewed him. He was very strange, and he assumed a couple of different identities. That interview took probably about eight or nine hours. While he never confessed to any of the homicides, we needed to try and figure out if he had a motive. Keep in mind that I'm dealing with circumstantial evidence, but I thought it was an abundance of circumstantial evidence. NEWS REPORTER With search warrants at the ready, investigators begin a toptobottom search of Ed Humphrey's apartment. DON They were looking for forensic, actual, tangible, connection that we could make. EDWARD Innocent until proven guilty. BROTHER My brother has irrational behavior, you know, and potentially violent behavior. My brother is not mentally capable of doing these things. NARRATOR The search of Humphrey's apartment yields no evidence, so police turn to other forensics. Police know that their killer is a B blood type. They test Humphrey to see if he's a match. DON We obtained a blood sample from him. We were able to determine that in fact he's not a B blood type. So, he wasn't our perpetrator. DAYLE The person who did this crime, had incredible control. He manipulated the scene, he manipulated the people. Ed Humphrey didn't have the wherewithal to commit these crimes. NARRATOR His innocence confirmed, Ed Humphrey rarely speaks in public after graduating with honors. EDWARD I was manicdepressive, I wasn't taking my medication. I acted irradically. They investigated me because of that I guess. When I was in jail, I was scared that I would never get out. I mean, I had someone in jail, a guard, tell me, you're never, ever gonna get out of here. EDWARD I'm very very happy to be free from prison today. EDWARD It was terrible knowing that once I got out of prison, everybody's gonna know who I am, and it's gonna taint me for the rest of my life, probably. They were under so much pressure they had to find someone, but they had the wrong person. DON It was a major setback, just when you thought you could see the light at the end of the tunnel, the light was dimming. That means we still had a killer on the loose. NARRATOR With their primary suspect now cleared, the task force starts combing databases for crimes that have a similar mark. LEGRAN The FBI has a database in their behavioral science unit, that's called the FICAP. It goes through everything that you know about the victim. The FBI runs it through this database, to see if any other agency in the United States, had any similar crimes. DAYLE There's a hit. It matched an earlier case that had occurred in Shreveport, Louisiana. There was a lot of facts and details that had matched in this case. DON November the 4th, of 1989, we had a 24yearold, Julie Grissom, her nephew, Sean, and her older father, Thomas Grissom, all three of them killed at the Grissom residence. And they didn't have any suspects. They had absolutely no leads on their case. In Shreveport, their victims had all been knifed. Duct tape had been applied. Bodies of our victims had been positioned, on the bed or on the floor. In Shreveport, Julie Grissom had also been posed on the bed. These similarities were probably more than a coincidence. In examining their police files, and their photos, I noticed that Julie Grissom's left breast had been bitten by the perpetrator. I knew that our perpetrator, was a B secretor, therefore if there'd been any saliva from that bite mark, we could do a comparison. NARRATOR Police in Shreveport check the evidence box. They find that they do have a wellpreserved saliva sample. DON I was very excited about that piece of information, and I inquired on what their saliva sample had shown. DAYLE When I was in the task force room, when they came back, when they entered the room, with the envelope in hand, and they say, you are not gonna believe this. NARRATOR It's been three months since the Gainesville ripper murdered five University of Florida students. Police have tracked down a triple murder cold case in Shreveport, Louisiana, that has all the ripper's marks, stabbing the victims, cutting their clothes, and posing the bodies. DON Their lab was able to process the bite mark on the victim's left breast, and low and behold, it's a B blood type. At each scene in Gainesville, we had semen collected, with an exact same match of B blood type. It was my firm belief that whoever did Shreveport, did Gainesville. NARRATOR Police put the word out to the media nationwide, about their new discovery, and get a tip from someone in Louisiana. DON She remembered this person that lived with her, during the same period of the Grissom homicides. This person told her that he was a bad person. She'd said, "well what do you mean, you're a bad person?" "Everybody is a bad person at one time or another, they sin." And the guy responded, that "I like to stick people." Well that was pretty unnerving information. His name was Danny Harold Rolling. LEGRAN When we start doing criminal history, criminal background, on Danny Rolling, we find out that he's been a felon for years. DON We found he had been taken into custody for committing a robbery in Ocala, Florida, shortly after the Gainesville student homicides. I said, we need to go talk to Danny. I told him that we were investigating various different crimes in other areas in other jurisdictions, and I specifically talked about areas that I knew he hadn't been in. Therefore, he would have nothing to hide. LEGRAN We want to try to eliminate you from this, and will you give us a blood sample? And then he voluntarily gives it. We come back with a vial of blood and send it to the lab. DON They came back with a match. Not only the same kind of blood, but an exact match on DNA. He's our guy. We got him. This is the monster we've been looking for. NARRATOR Florida police now have enough evidence to charge Danny Rolling with the five Gainesville murders. PAIGE There was a huge sense of relief, because finally they had a name and they had a face. Okay, they had him, we've got you, you're behind bars. NARRATOR Despite the evidence against him, Rolling pleads not guilty to all charges, so investigators start building their case for trial. LEGRAN When we start doing criminal history on Danny Rolling, he's done mostly grocery store robberies. At that point, we say hey, we had that robbery, that morning that we were working on Christa Hoyt. So we go back and dig out all that evidence from the campsite. We found this tape, and it had no markings on it. We push play, and we hear this guy singing on there. DON As soon as the tape starts playing, I hear Danny playing the guitar. NARRATOR Detectives now believe the campsite did belong to Rolling, and decide to take another look at the screwdriver they found there. LEGRAN The screwdriver was sent back to the lab, and we asked them to compare it to the tool marks on the doors. The lab identified the tool marks as being made by that screwdriver we had found at the campsite. It matched. NARRATOR It's another vital piece of concrete evidence tying Danny Rolling to the three murder scenes. Danny Rolling is sent to the Marion County Jail in Ocala, Florida, to await trial. MAN Excuse me mister Rollins. MAN Mister Rollins? MAN Mister Rollins? HARRY Danny had described a lot of emotional and physical abuse by the father. When he was a child, he would look in windows, to see other families in his neighborhood who had a traditional and loving family. Danny would fantasize about being part of these loving families. After he did this for several months, he saw a young girl getting out of the shower. It was at that point that he started becoming sexually aroused, in a deviant way. The voyeurism certainly played a part in these horrific crimes. DAYLE He idolized Ted Bundy. Danny Rolling decided he would duplicate Ted Bundy's crimes, but he would do them better. DR KROP I believe that at some level of his consciousness, Danny felt that he wanted to show his father that he could excel in something. ROD Before the trial, the warden had called us, and there had been a request indicating that Danny Rolling wanted to talk to us. This was a golden opportunity. We sent our guys out there, and we put it on video. The focus was gonna be on his confession. NARRATOR But once there, Rolling tells them he will only speak with detectives through another inmate named Bobby Lewis. ROD They would have had this defense, how do you know that Bobby's saying what Danny's really whispering to him, right? It's all sorts of hearsay issues. Our task force guys are asking Bobby questions. Danny, is reaching over like this, and whispering the answer in Bobby's ear. Bobby is then repeating what Danny has told him. LeGran Hewitt, through inspiration, courage, whatever, turns to him and says at some point, is that right, Danny? And Danny nods. All of a sudden now, they've cut out the middleman, and now we're getting the information directly from Danny. ROD We now have every detail of what he had done, and how he had done it. ROD Scientific evidence, eyewitness evidence, nothing works as strong as when a person said, I did it. I wanted those jurors to realize what those kids had had to go through during those hours, and I wanted this community to know what he did. Danny's lawyer stood up and Danny Rolling asked to address the court. I truly don't have any idea what he's gonna say. I was more nervous then I'd ever been in my life, before or since. And there wasn't a thing I could do about it. NARRATOR On the first day of his murder trial, Danny Rolling asks to make a statement. ROD The families came in, they were seated in the special section that had been set aside for them. They all were there, and shortly into the proceedings, I don't remember how long it had been, it seemed like it was forever, it was probably a matter of a few minutes, Danny Rolling asked to address the court. DON He changed his plea to guilty. DANNY There are some things that you just can't run from, and this being one of those. PAIGE I did not see that coming, at all. A lot of people were stunned, I was. ROD There was a mixture of joy, relief, sadness, anger, every emotional stage of grief happened in a matter of seconds. PAIGE You're waiting for this long, drawnout court procedure, and all of a sudden he pled guilty, and then it's like, is it over? Is it really over? ROD I think that he had surmised that the way to avoid the worst evidence against him, was to enter this plea. He knew what was coming. DON I don't think Danny wanted to sit there and listen to the details of all of his dastardly deeds. JUDGE The defendant, Danny Harold Rolling, is hereby sentenced to death. ROD The verdict was the death penalty. It was by a vote of 12zero. PAIGE After the death penalty verdict, I do feel like there was a sense of closure for the community as a whole. But is there ever a sense of closure for an individual who lived through that? DIANNA Danny Rolling had a picture from the newspaper of each of the five students that he had killed, and he put that above his bed. So every night that he laid down to go to sleep, he looked at these pictures, and he could fantasize over what he had done. I hated that. DON We still had Shreveport. There were three bodies out there that he was responsible for, too. Then, before he was executed, it literally was in the last days, Danny Rolling confessed to what he had done in Shreveport. Danny was never charged in Shreveport, they just weren't gonna get a chance to execute him, because we were gonna kill him first. DIANNA I needed to go to the execution of Danny Rolling, to represent our family, to let him see that I'm sitting there, looking at him, at his last, final moments, and to know that maybe I won this one, that he did not have that control over something yet, that he had lost control. NARRATOR After a long appeals process, Danny Rolling is executed by lethal injection on October 25, 2006. DIANNA You might learn how to go ahead and live your life, as if this never happened, but deep down inside, little things will trigger back all these memories again. In the quiet of the night, these memories creep in. PAIGE A memorial was put up there for the students, and it's maintained, different people maintain it. DON These are the kids from our neighborhood, full of life, full of love, eager to be at the university, and this bastard snuffed out their life. That hurts, hurts everybody.
