6 Murderers That Posted Their Kills On Facebook
1. Man Murders Entire Family To End Daughter’s Migraines
Just this May, Randy Janzen of British Columbia admitted to murdering his daughter, his wife, and his sister on Facebook after doing the deed. His reasons were confusing but he stated that he shot his daughter because of the chronic migraines she had long suffered and killed his wife so that she wouldn’t have to live with the fact that he’d killed their daughter.
Janzen’s home was quickly surrounded by police using smoke bombs to get him to come out but he wouldn’t. Moments after, the whole place went up in a blaze that killed Janzen and burned the bodies of his daughter and wife.
2. Murder For Breakfast
In 2010, 16-year-old Joshua Davies went to meet 15-year-old Rebecca Aylward to go for a walk together. The two had gone out for three months in 2009 before Davies broke it off and Rebecca is reported to have hoped he would ask her out again. However, Davies had something else in mind entirely and once the two young people entered the cover of a forest, Davies attacked Rebecca, first attempting to break her neck before finally smashing her head in with a rock.
He then went and got a friend to show him the murder scene because this friend had promised to buy him breakfast if Davies was willing to go through with his Facebook promise that he was going to murder Rebecca.
Rebecca’s family has since sued those friends of Davies who knew he was making threats against her but did nothing. Davies has since been convicted of the murder and was sentenced to life in prison.
