Benton County, Ark., prosecutors are seeking the death penalty for Timothy Glenn Howell, who is charged with killing Elvin Ramirez Sept. 4, 2004, by stabbing him in the heart. Howell and his son, Timothy McChristian, are both charged with the murder, according to today's Benton County Dail Record.
The two were captured by the Neosho Police Department just hours after the murder, the article said.
Prosecutors say there are two reasons why the death penalty is being sought: the depravity of the crime and the fact that Howell has been convicted of murder before.
