Cantonment, Florida on November 26, 2001, Terry King was murdered by his two boys, Alex King (age 12) and Derek King (age 13), while he was sleeping. Alex and Derek would change their stories multiple times.
Ricky Chavis was a friend of Terry’s who was also involved. Little did Terry know, Ricky had some dark secrets and he was preying on Alex, in particular.
The “why” in this murder case is still not very clear...
