On September 29th, 2005, a man named Levi King stole his fathers guns, broke into a home, and murdered two innocent people, for no apparent reason. Following this he would take a cross country road trip to Texas, where he would murder a family in an isolated farmhouse off the highway. Levi King had no motive and no remorse… Just an overwhelming desire to kill.
