While out on bond in his drugs case in July 1993, Honken and his girlfriend Angela Johnson kidnapped Lori Duncan and her two daughters from their Mason City, Iowa, home, then killed and buried them in a wooded area nearby. Ten-year-old Kandi and 6-year-old Amber were still in their swimsuits on the hot summer day when they were shot execution-style in the back of the head.
Their primary target that day was Lori Duncan’s then-boyfriend, Greg Nicholson, who also lived at the home and was also killed. He and Lori Duncan were bound and gagged and shot multiple times. Honken had recently learned Nicholson, a former drug-dealing associate, was cooperating with investigators and would likely testify against Honken at trial.
As the investigation into Honken continued, he killed another drug dealer working with him, Terry DeGeus, beating him with a bat and shooting him.
Investigators found the Nicholson and Duncan bodies only seven years later, in 2000, after Johnson scrawled out a map showing a jailhouse informant where they were buried. DeGeus’ body was found a few miles from the wooded area.
Johnson, Honken’s girlfriend, was convicted in a separate trial and sentenced to death. Bennett later reduced her sentence to life behind bars.
Hoken was regarded as bright and good at math. He went on to study chemistry at a community college, before dropping out to pursue a career dealing drugs instead.
He moved to Arizona and drew on his expertise in chemistry to produce highly purified meth in the hopes of getting rich. He and a friend distributed their product through dealers based in Mason City, Iowa.

Should we chalk his execution up as a Covid death?
Some “Breaking Bad” material in this article.
When does that Boston Bomber kid and Nidal Hassan get their one way ticket to hell?
So now there’s no more meth in Iowa?
When does that Boston Bomber kid and Nidal Hassan get their one way ticket to hell?
He is a mooselimb. Only white people get killed.
Three in one week? Texas can’t even match that!! Too bad Bradley Manning and Bo Bergdahl couldn’t be next.
Anyne who murders children should be executed immediately.....done deal.
Little Dustin's death-row playpal Danny Lee got unfairly offed by the Supremes - after their Superior, "judge" Tanya Chutkan, forbade them to do it.
It gave little Dustin The Sadz.
But he's all over that, now...
He killed, he deserves death. But the headline featured the meth - hence my question.
Of course, he would have "skipped bail" - as far as the authoritays knew...
That’s a thought!
I read this as “meat kingpin” at first and thought, “My word! They got Oscar Meyer”!”.
The execution should commence immediately; if the peep suffered awhile, that would be OK.
Yes. For many of these animals, the risk of prison is not much of a deterrent. More “uncomfortable” measures would most likely be a more effective deterrent. How about “medieval justice?”
“Should we chalk his execution up as a Covid death?”
Well, he *was* having trouble breathing at the end.
“3rd federal execution this week”
Maybe this will give the BLM/Antifa animals some pause.
