Oklahoma plans to execute a man who was convicted of killing an older couple and committing other crimes before authorities caught up to him in Texas 20 years ago.
Eizember was convicted of first-degree murder and sentenced to death for killing A.J. Cantrell and convicted of second-degree murder and sentenced to 150 years in prison for killing Patsy Cantrell. Eizember’s attorneys had argued Patsy Cantrell was shot and killed while he and A.J. Cantrell struggled over the shotgun.
Authorities believe Eizember hid out in wooded areas around the towns of Depew and Bristow for more than 30 days while law enforcement agencies launched a large manhunt to track him down.“He wasn’t afraid to kill again,” Assistant Attorney General Tessa Henry told the pardon board.
