David Cox is an inmate on death row in
the state of Mississippi.
Crime
David Cox was indicted in an
eight-count indictment for capital murder, kidnapping (two counts),
sexual battery (three counts), burglary, and firing into an occupied
dwelling. David Cox (“Cox”) and Kim Cox (“Kim”) had two
children of their marriage, D.C. and J.C. Cox was the stepfather of
Kim's daughter, L.K., born in April 1998.2 Kim and Cox separated in
2009 after L.K. told Kim that Cox had raped her. Kim reported the
crime to local law enforcement. In August 2009, Cox was arrested on
charges of statutory rape, sexual battery, child abuse, possession of
precursors, and possession of methamphetamine. During his nine months
in jail prior to posting bond, Cox often would become enraged and
would proclaim to his cellmates his hatred for Kim, blaming her for
his incarceration. Cox professed to them that he would kill Kim once
released. Because Kim feared Cox, she and the children moved in with
her sister, Kristie Salmon. The first 911 call was made at 7:10 p.m.
Cox communicated with police throughout the night and early morning.
Through those communications, police learned that Cox had shot Kim
twice, once in the arm and once in the abdomen, between 7:00 p.m. and
7:10 p.m. During the ordeal, Cox communicated with hostage
negotiators, Kim's father and stepmother, and members of Cox's
family. The last confirmation that Kim was still alive was at 12:45
a.m. on May 15. While Kim lay dying, Cox sexually assaulted L.K. in
Kim's presence on three separate occasions.
His victim was Kim Cox, his estranged wife.
His victim was Kim Cox, his estranged wife.
