Murder Suspects Describe Killings in $2 Robbery - Chilling
foxnews.com — The men arrested in the slayings of an aspiring Christian singer and his colleague at a Texas recording studio said in a chilling jailhouse interview the victims were killed at random in a robbery that netted only $2. They traveled by train from Dallas to the suburb of Garland because "that's where all the rich white folks stay at," Broadnax said.

Broadnax recounted in blood-curdling detail how he shot the men to death in a parking lot outside the recording studio after Cummings asked for a cigarette. "I just blanked the ***** out," Broadnax said. "I shot him [Butler] and he stumbled back. I shot the driver [Swan]. He hit the ground, you know what I'm saying, but he leaned up like he was going to try to get back up, so I shot him in the head. "Then his homeboy, I shot his ass again, you know what I'm saying, but he was still trying to run off," he continued. "I knew he was going to die anyway, but just to make sure — pop, pop." Broadnax said he shot Butler twice in the head.
Cummings told the station that he and his cousin had traded an AK-47 as collateral for a pistol to use during what he thought would just be a robbery. "We didn't plan to shoot nobody and nothing like that," Cummings told MyFOXDFW.com. "No, I take that back. I did tell him we'd probably have to pop them a few times or whatever. I did. But still, I didn't think he was going to do it."
When asked about what he would say to the victims' families, Broadnax replied, "***** 'em." - FuryOfThor, on 06/24/2008, -0/+3upsetting.
- CaptainAmerica1, on 06/24/2008, -0/+3OK, now I want to hear from those who think these two should *not* be executed...go ahead...try to justify why they shouldn't be permanently removed from society...please tell me we should spend hard-earned taxpayer money to house, clothe, feed, and pay for medical care for them for the rest of their lives.
They don't deserve crap. These two represent lowest form of societal scum possible. They shouldn't even be breathing the same air as the rest of us.
I hope they rot in hell. - wright3279, on 06/24/2008, -0/+3And sorry to add, there are so many more out there with the same mindset as these two scumbags. Death penalty after they've had a fair trial and not sit on death row for 20 years first.
- duggitt4u, on 06/24/2008, -0/+1I certainly hope that this is prosecuted as a hate crime since they mentioned they were targeting "rich white folks."
- thunder4, on 06/24/2008, -0/+1 sounds like a hate crime, too bad Texas doesn't have a hate crime law but they do have the death penalty, maybe the Rev. Al Sharpton can petition for it again.
- jason4188, on 06/25/2008, -0/+2What the hell the victims were WHITE, this is not news. Come back when you have something interesting like, "Evil whites slip into black part of town, to commit hate crimes against humanity!."
- olegunny, on 06/25/2008, -0/+1Why are this vermin still breathing air. Shoot the son of a bitches on sight. I would love to be at Huntsville when they pop the needle in these bastards
- CARHINO, on 06/25/2008, -0/+1And yet my cousin, who is a Police officer in Southfield, (high income suburb of detroit) is reprimanded for pulling over unfamiliar vehicles, obviously not in the right neighborhood, at 2 am. Stereotyping is the pc newspeak word for COMMON SENSE.
Anyone who wants an idea on how to restructure our system, need only watch the first half hour of Judge Dredd!!!
