He Killed Across Two States. She Lived to Tell the Story.
Manage episode 520703692 series 2642049
In the middle of the night, ten-year-old Robin Doan woke to the sound of gunfire. Within minutes, her mother, stepfather, and the family dog were dead. Robin survived only by playing dead and hiding under her blankets while the killer walked through her home. That killer was Levi King, a man already on a violent spree that began in Missouri before ending in a Texas farmhouse.
From Pineville to Pampa, King’s murders showed no motive beyond the thrill of killing. After leaving two men dead in Missouri, he crossed state lines and slaughtered Robin’s family without hesitation. Despite the terror she faced, Robin managed to call 911, giving investigators the break they needed to track King down.
Levi King eventually confessed, his chilling calm and obsession with murder horrifying even seasoned detectives. Today, he is serving life without parole. Robin, the only survivor, has spent years rebuilding her life, becoming a symbol of strength and survival in the face of unimaginable violence.
