    Robert Ward Frazier - California Death Row


    Kathleen Aiello-Loreck


    Robert Ward Frazier


    Facts of the Crime:

    Frazier was convicted for the rape and murder of Kathleen Aiello-Loreck. On May 13, 2003, he waited on a walking path for his victim to appear, then bludgeoned her to death with a fence post. DNA evidence tied Frazier to the crime. Defense attorneys said Frazier did attack Aiello-Loreck, he did not plan the crime. The defense also argued mental illness during the penalty phase. Frazier tried to fire his attorneys throughout the trial, but the judge would not allow it. On June 21, 2006, a jury convicted Frazier of murder, rape and sodomy.

    A judge sentenced Frazier to death in Contra Costa County on December 15, 2006.

    I grew up with him in Tinley Park, Illinois. He started to go sideways the summer between 6th and 7th grades. From what I heard after high school, that's when he started huffing gas, and doing oddball things back then. That summer was the last time I saw him up until the television show about him murdering Kathleen. He was a talented artist, even as a kid. His chosen expression was with pencils. What happened to ya, Bobby?
