Oklahoma Man Out on Early Release Commits Triple Homicide
Murders Woman, Cooks Her Heart, Tries to Feed it to Relatives — Including Four-Year-Old Child
An Oklahoma man out of prison on early release committed a grisly triple homicide that included cooking the heart of his first victim and trying to feed it to his subsequent victims — which included a four-year-old child.
Lawrence Paul Anderson, 44, had only been out of prison for one month at the time of the murders. He was serving a 20-year prison sentence for drug crimes when Governor Kevin Stitt commuted his sentence at the recommendation of the Pardon and Parole Board.
Anderson’s murder spree began when he -broke into the home of Andrea Lynn Blankenship, 41, and fatally stabbed her and took her heart.
Anderson then took the heart to the home of his aunt and uncle, Leon Pye and Delsie Pye. The Pyes’ four-year-old grandchild Kaeos Yates was also at the home.
The convicted criminal went to the kitchen and cooked Blankenship’s heart and attempted to feed it to his relatives.
