DA seeks death penalty at homicide hearing
Last December, Eric Knox was arrested for the death of Herb Beesley's sister, Stacey. Police say her fiance, Knox, stabbed her in their Midwest City apartment. They say she was four months away from giving birth to her first child.
Herb Beesley, victim's brother, said, "It feels like it was yesterday. There's not a day that goes by that I don't think of my sister Stacey. I have a 4-year-old little girl that asks about her. If that doesn't tear you up inside, i don't know what will."
Knox is now facing two counts of first degree murder for killing Beesley and her unborn child. Friday at his hearing at the Oklahoma County Courthouse, the DA said he planned to seek the death penalty.
