Texas Death Row Inmate Derrick Jackson
On September 11, 1998, Jackson entered an man's apartment and used a metal bar to beat him. Jackson also used a knife to stab the victim to death. Jackson then beat and stabbed to death the victim's male roommate.
He then took the victim's car and was involved in a high-speed chase with the Houston Police Department, but was not captured.
Jackson was later arrested for the crime while he was in prison on an unrelated aggravated robbery charge.
