According to Lockhart's own account, Lauren Burk offered him the $200 in her purse to let her go. Instead Lockhart ordered Lauren to strip her clothes off.

As premeditated as a rape-murder ever is.

Mr. Stix, Google Aeman Lovel Presley. Ho-hum. Just another black serial killer who shot three homeless black men while they slept and also murdered a white woman, Karen Pearce, during a botched robbery! According to media accounts, Presley expressed remorse over Pearce's death but not so much over the three homeless fellows. Maybe black lives really don't matter.
