At the end of summer in nineteen ninety-four the fire unit in the small town of Vinton Virginia got a call that a dwelling was on fire not far from the fire station. In responding to that call the firemen entered the house through a second floor dormer, this is the usual place for bedrooms. The dense smoke required them to get low on the flooring to where the smoke was the lightest, but it still wasn’t light enough that they could see over a couple inches from their eyes. Feeling around, the leading fireman found the bedpost and searched the top of the bed where he expected someone may have been sleeping and overcome with smoke.

There was a person in the bed and the smoke was clearing fast through the open window where they entered. Through the dissipating smoke they could see it was a man but inspecting the person more they realized smoke was not why he was still lying there. He had a gunshot injury to his left temple and the high temperature from the fire in the closed up dwelling was making the blood boil out of the head wound.

Looking through the other bedroom in the small house they found two children and both of them also had been shot in the head. Each child had two bullet wounds to the head, fired a close range. Close enough that the powder burns surrounded the wounds.

In the meantime a fireman had gained admission to the downstairs, and like the others, he had crawled into the living room where he discovered a burnt body lying on a sofa. It wasn’t till later that this person was found to be a woman and her death was from strangulation. This examination revealed she was wearing only a pair of turquoise panties and the rest of her clothing was underneath her body. All but the white shorts she had been wearing and they were across the room. On the stairway leading to the upstairs the police later discovered a clump of hair that had been pulled out while struggling with someone.

The police, focusing on one particular person, a long time friend of the family, ignored any and all other evidence pointing to someone other than this friend.
Through deceit, made up evidence and perjury this friend was convicted and executed for the murders.

There was actually no evidence connecting him to the murders, no confession, no motive, not even a murder weapon. But lies from the lead investigator, and lies from the firearm expert and lies from a jailhouse snitch convicted the man.
