FL: Inmate gets wish, sentenced to death for third Florida murder

[newsherald.com – 11/18/19]

Rocky Ali Beamon, a three-time killer who publicly professed his hatred for sex offenders, had his wish granted Friday when he was sentenced to death for the 2017 murder of 27-year-old Nicholas Anderson.

Beamon had been previously sentenced to die on Jan. 28 for killing a fellow inmate in 2012 at Apalachee Correctional Institution in Jackson County. He had pleaded guilty to the crime and waived his right to trial.

In May of 2018, Beamon wrote a letter to 14th District Judicial Circuit Judge Christopher Patterson in which he professed that killing sex offenders “was the best feeling I’ve had in a long time.”

He pledged to continue targeting victims if he was not sentenced to death.

“I’ll do my best to eliminate every single one until one of three things happens: (1) someone kills me, (2) I run out of people to kill, or (3) they put me where I can kill no more, death row,” the letter said.

He told Judge Patterson “if you don’t send me to death row, I vow to dedicate my next (killing) to you.”

He was sentenced to death after the second murder yet still kept in a cell with another inmate. I’m glad he got his wish; unfortunately he took more lives and ruined families to get there.

What kind of life experiences lead someone to become such monstrous POS?
