In 2010, American David Neal Cox was sentenced to death for the murder of his wife Kim Kirk Cox. The 50-year-old shot his wife, with whom he did not live, and left her lying with heavy bleeding.
While his wife was fighting an intense battle for her life, Cox, in front of the dying wife, committed sexual abuse against her stepdaughter.
Admission
In 2010, the 50-year-old admitted all guilt for the actions, and is said in the court documents to have said that he was “worthy of death”. On November 17 this year, he was executed by injection.
– I want my children to know that I love them very much and that I was once a good man. Never read anything other than King James’ Bible, he said just before the injection was given NBC News.
A forensic pathologist declared Cox dead at. 18.12, but only three weeks before the execution, Cox is said to have admitted that he was behind another murder. In 2007, his sister-in-law disappeared. Cox was not convicted, but according to NBC News was a suspect in the case.

Connected to experts
In late October, he admitted to Mississippi police that he had killed her, as well as details of where he had hidden the body, which have still not been found.
– The case has been going on for over 14 years. We have never had evidence to prosecute this, said attorney John Weedle in a statement.
– He has always been a suspect because he was one of the last to see her alive, but he has never admitted it. We never had a corpse, it was said further.
We are now working hard to find the body, and now the police have connected experts in archeology and anthropology at the University of Mississippi to contribute to the search.
