Facts of the Crime:

Billings and Robert Jackson worked together on a dairy farm in Caswell County. On July 7, 1995, Billings broke into Jackson's trailer when he knew Jackson would be working. He stabbed Jackson's son, then 13-year-old Bobby, repeatedly then raped 11-year-old Amy in her father's bedroom.

After the rape, Billings again stabbed Bobby and Amy tried to escape by running through a bean field. Billings, however, caught up to her, stabbed her in throat, and raped her again. Bobby survived 23 stab wounds and was able to call police and identify Billings as the attacker. Amy was found dead in the field the following morning.

Billings has exhausted his appeals and was denied certiorari by the US Supreme Court on January 8, 2007.
