TULSA, Oklahoma -- The Oral Roberts University community is banding together to pray for the families of two young people who were brutally murdered in a Tulsa park Monday morning.
Police say 21-year-old Ethan Nichols and 18-year-old Carissa Horton were walking through Hicks Park when they were shot and killed on the jogging trail near a children's playground.
"Carissa Horton, a freshman and a resident of Claudius dormitory, was killed in an off-campus incident," ORU President Mark Rutland said in a message on the university web site.
"The Tulsa Police Department is investigating the incident, and we are working with them. Please be in prayer for her family, wingmates and all those who were impacted by her life."
Police arrested 19-year-old Darren Price and 21-year-old Jerard Davis for the crimes. They say Price was driving the stolen car that belonged to Ethan Nichols.
Reports show Davis told officers the two men saw the couple walking a dog near a jogging trail. Each man told officers the other is the one who had the victims get on their knees, then shot them each once in the head execution style, according to arrest reports.
Police say it was a cold blooded execution for no reason at all.
Horton had only been at college for a month, but those who knew her say she was sweet and kind.
"She had a very humble spirit about her. She was a music major so she and her roommate Alexis were always singing, you could hear them down the hall, beautiful voice and she always had the cutest shoes, I was like Carissa, I love them," said Jessica Fitzgerald, an RA at ORU.
Fitzgerald said the girls on Carissa's floor have cried and prayed together and take comfort knowing Carissa is with God.

The thugs
Why waste taxpayer money on a trial here and then coddle them in jail for years?
Kanye is a gay fish.
So were these wastes of protoplasm thinking, “Hey, there’s two people, let’s just kill them and take their stuff!” The part of me that’s been brought up civilized tells me to let the law deal with it, but evilcoydog is screaming “Take those wastes of protoplasm back to the scene of the crime, execute them the same way and charge’em for the bullets!” We may hose on the Chicoms for a lot of reasons and rightly so, but a summary death sentence for murder is one thing they have RIGHT.
Indeed. Warm up the wood chipper.
I do not advocate lynchings but I can see how they happened. And contrary to the current P.C. media, lynchings were an equal opportunity act and used upon anyone with total disregard to their race,ethnicity,religion,color, etc.
The punks sure weren’t trying very hard to hide after the killing... cruising around in the car they had just carjacked from the victim. Good thing for catching them that they were stupid.
Awwww, use a cold one.
Well according to Darwin these punks would have died off but we have a government that encourages and rewards them for breeding and we, the tax payers, take care of them and their abundant offspring.
I know exactly where Hicks Park is and you don’t ever go walking there at night. Unfortunately, they probably were new to the area. Such a tragedy.
Just to let you know, this is not satire. (sarcasm)
New and ignorant but I can not believe these two thugs murdered them. Their was no reason to murder them.
A known rough area, huh.
Is it by any chance a (ha ha) “gun free zone”? Where an intended victim does not have at least a fighting chance?
High on drugs, a gang initiation, whatever. Or maybe for the sheer hell of it. They already showed how stupid they were by cruising around openly in the vehicle they had carjacked.
Tulsa seems to have more than its fair share of terrible thugs.
I waiting for Obama and Holder’s denouncement of this crime.
Where’s Jay Carney?
Al Sharpton?
Jesse Jackson?
Hate crime. Nothing on the news.
Where is the NYT?
