Theodore Shove is an inmate on death row in the state of California..

Crime

Shove hired a hit man to kill an elderly couple, Hubert and Elizabeth Souther in order to take over their surplus hardware and tool business.

Burt Souther owned and operated a successful surplus hardware business, Cal Aero, located in Paramount. Shove wanted to buy Cal Aero, but Souther did not want to sell it to him. Shove became obsessed with acquiring the company. Shove ultimately decided to murder Souther and his wife with the intention of getting the business from their daughters, who would inherit it. Shove hired appellant to commit the murders. Sometime during the weekend of September 15, 2001, appellant entered the Southers' home and, as they slept in their bed, brutally beat them to death with a tire iron.
After the murders, Shove tried to extort the Southers' daughters to get the company. Shove also broke into a safe at Cal Aero. Shove was thus charged with commercial burglary, receiving stolen property, and sending threatening letters for extortion, as well as murder. The detailed facts discussed below focus principally on appellant's role in the murders.
