Facts of the Crime:
Wallace lived with Susan Insalaco and her two children, 16-year-old Anna and 12-year-old Gabe. After an argument with Susan on the night of January 31, 1984, Susan told Wallace to move out the next day. After Susan, Anna and Gabe left the next day, Wallace did not leave and instead stayed in the house and decided to kill them. When Anna returned from school that day, Wallace was waiting with a baseball bat. He hit Anna repeatedly on the head until the bat broke, then pushed the broken end of the bat through her throat.
Wallace put Anna's body in the bathroom, cleaned up and then got a steel pipe wrench from a shed. When Gabe came home, Wallace followed him into his room and killed him by striking him in the head with the pipe wrench. Wallace then waited for Susan. When she arrived two hours later, she asked him why he had not left as she had requested. He followed her into the kitchen and killed her by hitting her in the head with the same wrench.
Wallace was resentenced to death on November 29, 2009.
