Episode Details

Two brutal murders in Fort Worth ended in guilty verdicts this Thursday, as juries convicted Steven Black and Javaughn Greer for savage attacks that left two vulnerable victims dead. Black was found guilty for crushing Susan Watkins’ skull with asphalt and stomping her to death; Greer was convicted for beating and stomping Donald Snellings, who later died in the hospital after 21 days without regaining consciousness. Both victims were struggling with addiction and homelessness, and both assaults featured extreme blunt-force trauma. Prosecutors used chilling evidence — including the actual asphalt and reenactments of the stomping — to prove intent, while defense teams argued lack of clear murderous intent. Black received life with parole after 30 years; Greer got 40 years with parole eligibility after 20. In a chilling moment, Greer admitted to using his foot during the attack, while Black chose not to testify.
