In a disgusting tale of brutality, a 16-year-old boy has admitted to stabbing and killing his own cousin, only 21, while attempting to rape her. As if that wasn’t disgusting enough, he then turned the knife on his grandmother. Scary stuff, indeed[1]:
Joshua Keyzer pleaded guilty Monday to felony murder and first-degree attempted criminal sexual conduct targeting Kassandra Keyzer, which took place in June 2014 when he was 15 years old.
‘I killed her, ma’am,’ Keyzer told Judge Margaret Zuzich-Bakker via teleconference.
As part of a plea agreement, the prosecution will not seek a life sentence without the possibility of parole.
When he is sentenced June 15, Keyzer could face 40 to 60 years in prison., reported Mlive.com.
The horrific murder played out June 25, 2014, inside a home in Wayland Township, Michigan, belonging to Keyzer’s grandmother.
Police were summoned to the residence in the 3000 block of 10th Avenue by Sharon Keyzer, who told an emergency dispatcher that her grandson had slit her throat.
Officers who responded to the scene were greeted by Mrs. Keyzer holding a blood-soaked towel to her slashed neck.
They found her grandson Joshua, then 15 years old, standing on the roof of the house covered in blood and brandishing a knife.
The teenage suspect fell to the ground and tried to flee, but police caught up with him and subdued him with the help of a Taser.
Upon entering the basement of the home, officers discovered Kassandra Keyzer’s partially naked body with arms outstretched, lying on an ottoman ringed by pools of gore.
The 21-year-old college student, who had a 2-year-old son and was engaged to be married, was covered in blood from head to toe, and had deep cuts to her body and a stab wound to her neck.
Disgusting. This young man obviously has some severe issues that he needs MAJOR help with. Who rapes and kills their cousin, and follows that up with a throat slashing of his Grandma? Messed up. oh, ‘my bad’, I mean.
