A poem that was written by Luke Woodham before his killing spree: He doesn't know why he did it,he just did it out of rage The world made him mad, so he picked her to pay Now she's lyin' there In the dark Almost makes him regret he did it Now, when he thinks about id, he shakes He looks at the bed, covered in her blood He sees her pale, blookied face And, then he drops on his knees And begs and pleads, for god to save her She never did him any wrong She was just a young girl, Hasn't had much time in this world Why....did he put her in so much pain Why...did her life hace to end this way Why...did her blood not flow anymore Why....did he do this he'll never know She'll always be a stranger to him She'll always be a stranger to him SHE'LL ALWAYS BE A STRANGER TO HIM ..............just someone he didn' know The above info was provided by a visitor to this page.. (Thanks Misti!!) Here is more on what she had to say: I also found that this young man was very disturbed, Two weeks before he killed classmates, Luke tortured and drowned his Shih Tzu named Sparkle. Luke was a self-proclaimed nerd. He found acceptance with a group of Satanist boys who lead a cult called the Kroth. The guys in the cult, Luke included, liked wearing black and reading Nietzsche. They studied Latin and admired the work of Adolph Hitler, and wore trench coats. Some say it was cult leaders Justin Sledge and Grant Boyette who acted as the Manson programmers in Luke's mind. Shortly after Luke joined the devil worshiping club, he was part of a black magic seance which placed a curse on a popular student the Kroths all hated. One day after the curse, the student, Rocky Brewer, was run over and killed by a car! It's been rumored Justin and Grant brainwashed Luke into annihilating his girlfriend after she broke up with him. the two boy's were charged with accessories but charges later were droped. Luke had also light his dog on fire and threw her body into a lake as if that weren't sickening enough, a couple weeks later he beat his mothers receptionist with a baseball bat, shattering her jaw, then stabbed her eleven times with a butcher knife. Her autopsy report says she bled slowly to death |
