Naim Rasool Muhammad
I am so glad this man was sentenced to death, what he did is despicable and doesn't deserve to be alive. It broke my heart to read that the last words of one of his sons was "I love you, dad".
A man was arrested, charged and convicted on murder related charges after drowning his two little sons in a Texas creek, according to court proceedings in Texas.
Police said that the father told two of his children to pretend they were swimming as they drowned in the creek in the Dallas area. Now, he was sentenced to death by a judge in Texas.
Jurors took less than 10 minutes to convict Naim Rasool Muhammad after hearing testimony from the mother of the two drowned children. The children were identified as five-years-old Naim, and 3-year-old Elijah. The jury also saw a video of Muhammad, 34, who described the killings to a police detective.
Authorities said that Muhammad forced the children and their mother, Kametra Sampson, in a car and started driving. It was supposed to be the first day of school for Naim.
Sampson was able to jump out the car and alert a nearby county officer, who called police.
As officers launched a manhunt, Muhammad took the kids to a creek in Glenn Heights, outside of Dallas. He described what happened next in a recorded interview played in court and quoted.
