KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - A Tennessee man convicted of kidnapping, rape and murder charges in the fatal carjacking of a couple on a date has been sentenced to death.
The defendant, 28-year-old Lemaricus Davidson, showed no reaction Friday as jurors announced the death sentences for the murders of 21-year-old college student Channon Christian and her 23-year-old boyfriend, Christopher Newsom.
Davidson was found guilty of abducting the couple in Knoxville during a 2007 carjacking by several armed men.

Gathering a loyal fan club in the process.
Who are the other 3 in the picture? Did all three have a part in this?
Evil lives.

Thanks MT, just missed it I guess.
They'd be a lot deader if he did doncha know.
This was a hate crime. Pure and simple. I hope the low-life scum burns in hades!
I really feel for the Christian and Newsome families.
Thanks for the link to the video. This killer had absolutely no emotion throughout the trial, the verdict nor the punishment handed down. Either he is a true defect of nature or sedated ... I now the first is true.
“.. soon we will hear Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson ..”
No we won’t hear from them nor Obama; they silenced the media on this ... those are their words.
There were 5 involved in this: 2 sentenced, 1 pending trial, 1 guy is in federal prison and has not been charged and the woman is trying to get immunity and not be charged. They need to throw the book at her too as in her own words, she participated WILLINGLY.
lalalala ...we’re alike blah blah blah..
All of the 4 had a part in it. They are all animals and deserve to die a slow, painful death. Unfortunately the liberals who wrote our existing laws say that causing pain to animals such as these is prohibited. I am afraid if I was the parent of either of these kids, all 4 of these a**hats would be dead by now and I would be on trial.
True. I shouldn’t be so judgmental.
What on earth could have caused them to stray from their medical school studies, retirement home volunteer work, high tech jobs and religious studies?
Surely this is just an aberration, the first time any of them even thought of something like this, no doubt caused by White Privilege and its attendant and inherent racism.
The horribly mutilated, raped and tortured victims were actually the true aggressors.
I’m going to stop now before I do or say something that in and of itself will become a post on FR.
You bet! Could not agree more
Thanks, just didn’t check the source for further information.
Cannot imagine what they are going through. Lost my parents in a flood many years ago, but nothing like this. What a horrible way to die.
Too bad it’s not 1909—the citizens would have already handled this.........
hear hear...and folks behaved better too
