Editing Hi-Fi murders (section)

===Murders===
On April 22, 1974, a group of six African-American men who included Pierre, Andrews and Roberts drove to the Hi-Fi store at 2323 Washington Boulevard, Ogden, in two vans. Four of them entered the store brandishing handguns while Roberts and the driver of the other van remained in the vehicles. Two employees, 20-year-old Stanley Walker and 18-year-old Michelle Ansley, were inside at the time. Pierre and Andrews took the two hostage and forced them into the basement, where they tied them up. The four men then began robbing the store. During the robbery, 16-year-old Cortney Naisbitt entered the store to thank Stanley Walker for allowing him to park his car outside the store and was also taken hostage. Later that evening, Stanley Walker's father Orren and Cortney Naisbitt's mother Carol both arrived to search for their respective sons and were also taken hostage.

With five hostages in the basement, Pierre told Andrews to get a bottle of Drano from the van. Pierre poured out a cup of Drano and ordered Orren to give it to the other hostages, but he refused. Pierre and Andrews propped the hostages into sitting positions and forced them to drink the Drano, claiming that it was vodka laced with sleeping pills. They then attempted to duct-tape the victim's mouths shut to stop them screaming but the blisters forming as a result of the Drano stopped the tape from sticking. Orren Walker was the last to be given the Drano, but spat it out when Pierre and Andrews weren't looking and mimicked the screaming and convulsing of the other hostages.

Pierre, frustrated that the victims were taking too long to die, shot Carol and Cortney Naisbitt in the head, killing Carol. He then shot at both Walkers, missing Orren and only grazing the back of his head but killing Stanley. Afterwards Pierre told Andrews to leave for 30 minutes; after Andrews left, Pierre dragged Michelle Ansley into the corner, forced her to strip naked at gunpoint and raped her. He then dragged her back over to the hostages, threw her to the ground and shot her. When Andrews re-entered, he noticed that Orren was still alive and told Pierre to finish him off. Pierre attempted to strangle him with a garrotte wire, but this failed to kill him. Andrews then placed a ballpoint pen in Orren's ear and Pierre stomped on it until it punctured his eardrum and stabbed through his throat. Believing him to be dead, Pierre and Andrews left the basement and helped their accomplices to load the vans before the group left.
