Janice and Alyssa Owen

[Clytemnestra]

Hey all,
I was wondering if anyone had any information about why Janice and Alyssa were murdered. I tried to search for more information about the people convicted of their murders (Eric D. Mize and Angela M. Mize), but did not find much info. Does anyone know why they were murdered? Or how the Owens were involved with the Mizes? Was it a random act of violence? Was Janice a witness or participant of some illegal activity with these people? One search that came up was from the Division of Drug Control, so I am wondering if their murders were related to the illegal drug trade? Thanks, any info would be appreciated.

Sadly I remember reading somewhere they believe their abduction and murder were for sexual reasons. :( Such a sickening case!

I had always wondered about this case as well; I figured that it was a robbery gone wrong. How horrible. :(

This segment was really twisted. They said they sexually assaulted the child and afterwords killed the mother because "she was in the way". Well that's two people that deserve to rot in prison for the rest of their waking life.

That case always creeps me out, I have a hard time watching the segment because it's so disturbing. Thankfully there were several eyewitnesses for this case.
