COLUMBIA, S.C. — A South Carolina man confessed Monday to methodically stalking and murdering four family members in their home, reloading his shotgun five times before firing the final shot into his father as the man said "I love you.":crying:

Sept. 21 2009. Nathan Dickson pleaded guilty Monday to four counts of murder and received four consecutive sentences of life without parole.

Nathan Dickson, 20, pleaded guilty to four counts of murder as part of a deal that will allow him to avoid the death penalty. He was sentenced to life in prison without parole.

Dickson didn't say why he killed his father, stepmother, stepsister and younger brother at their Easley home in April 2008, and Prosecutor Chrissy Adams said the motive may never be known. Defense attorney Kurt Tavernier said not being able to figure out why he killed his family gnaws at Dickson every day.

Adams read Dickson's confession in court in Anderson County. He had been arrested hours after the killings — spending the time before police found him riding four-wheelers with a friend.

There was a thread for this case at one time but I cant find it now.

Thanks for the update. I was wondering just a few minutes ago about some of the cases over the past year or so that seemed to just drop out of the news. This was one of them.

You are very welcome.

This one was so chilling. After murdering his entire family he goes to buy him something to eat and was seen riding a 4 wheeler.
