The Gruesome Story of a Murdered Tennessee Couple You May Have Never Heard – But That You Will Never Forget. After a radio caller made him aware of the extremely disturbing story of Christopher Newsom and Channon Christian in Knoxville, Tenn., Glenn Beck researched the case and was horrified at what he found.
Though the details are hard to hear, Beck told the couple’s story in excruciating detail during his show on TheBlaze TV Tuesday. The killings occurred in 2007; however, Beck says the media failed to give the case adequate coverage due to special interests or negligence. Newsom, 23, was a standout baseball player who was working as a carpenter. Christian was a 21-year-old student at the University of Tennessee. The happy couple had been dating for a couple months.

His father, Orren, 43, thought the Jeep they’d just bought might have broken down, so he drove down to the shop to see if his son needed a ride. When Orren didn’t return after a few hours either, his wife and 16-year-old son followed. They found a darkened store that had been looted. Orren was alive, but badly hurt. The assailants had forced their victims to drink Drano. Texas set to execute Lisa Coleman for gruesome murder of child. When emergency services arrived at the home Lisa Coleman shared with her lover they found the bruised and emaciated dead body of nine-year-old Davontae Williams clad only in bandages and a diaper.
Ten years later, Coleman is set to be executed in Texas for her role in the boy’s death. Barring the unlikely success of a last-minute appeal to the supreme court, on Wednesday at 6pm CT, the 38-year-old will become only the 15th woman put to death in the US since capital punishment was restored in 1976. Though women commit about one in 10 murders in the US they account for only 1% of executions.
But the jury in Tarrant County was persuaded to hand down the ultimate punishment after hearing testimony at Coleman’s trial that detailed the gruesome treatment the child suffered at a low-rent apartment complex a short drive south of the Dallas Cowboys’ NFL stadium.
