2022 Marks 10 Years Since 'Good Friday Murders' In Tulsa

This Good Friday marks 10 years since the "Good Friday Murders" in Tulsa, where two men gunned down random black victims in 2012.

Jake England and Alvin Watts, are both serving life in prison. The Good Friday murders made international headlines, and prosecutors called the case senseless crimes that happened for no reason.

England and Watts have both been in prison for eight years now after pleading guilty to murdering three innocent people and shooting two others, who survived.

Prosecutors said England and Watts randomly targeted black people on Good Friday in 2012 because England's father had been killed by a black man in 2010. England later admitted that was true. All five people were shot at different locations within five miles. William Allen, Bobby Clark, and Dannaer Fields died. England and Watts were arrested within 24 hours thanks to several Crime Stoppers tips.

In court, England wrote a letter to the families of the victims saying he was sorry "these innocent people got caught up in his chaotic self-destructive downward spiral." Both men would have faced the death penalty if the case had gone to trial.
