A twenty-six-year old man and his girlfriend were
charged on Friday for killing four young people in a car after a drug deal in
Tennessee. Jacob Allen Bennett and his girlfriend Lina Yvonn Moser who is
twenty five have both been charged and this is the first time Moser has been in
any criminal trouble. What was supposed to be a drug deal, turned into a
robbery, which led to the killing of four people. Among the four people killed,
Dominic Davis was one. He was seventeen and moved to Tennessee to make life
better for him. In a class assignment he wrote, "I want to be remembered
not as the best man alive, but the most respected." Steven
Presley was another among the four. He was also seventeen. Presley would
make people’s lives better. The district of the school described him as "always
happy, smiling, funny, kindhearted, sweet and polite," the type of person
"who would do anything for anyone (and) was loved by all who knew
him." Another person killed was John Lajeunesse. He was sixteen. He would
have been seventeen next month. And the fourth person who killed and was
sitting in the driver’s seat was Rikki Jacobsen. She was twenty two and a young
mother of a young boy. Bennett and Moser tried to rob Davis and Jacobsen. The
Tennessee Bureau of Investigation said “Bennett faces four counts of felony
murder, four counts of premeditated murder and two counts of attempted
aggravated robbery” during a press release on Friday. 57,000 residents were
shocked. The residents live in a neighborhood where everyone knows each other.
Twenty hours within the crime, Bennett was arrested after being spotted in a
nearby car, which was seventy miles west of Knoxville. Moser was arrested on
Friday morning in her home which is forty miles south where she took place in
the crime. Those four victims were at the wrong place at the wrong time.
