Christopher Goins Case
“On October 14,1994, Christopher Goins entered the home of 14-year-old Tamika Jones, who was seven months pregnant with Goins’ child. Goins proceeded to brutally murder Tamika’s parents, her nine-year-old sister, Nicole, her four-year-old brother, David, and her three-year-old brother, Robert. Goins shot each of these victims at least once in the head. During the course of this killing spree, Goins appeared in the doorway of Tamika’s bedroom and shot the pregnant teen nine times including three times in the stomach, one bullet fatally piercing the head of the unborn baby. He also shot her 21-month-old sister, Kenya, who survived. A jury convicted Goins of capital murder, four counts of first degree murder, two counts of malicious wounding, and seven counts of illegal use of a firearm in the commission of those felonies, and sentenced him to death. Upon review of the case, the trial judge imposed the jury’s sentence. The convictions and death sentence were upheld on multiple appeals. “Upon a thorough review of the Petition for Clemency, the numerous court decisions regarding this case, and the circumstances of this matter, I decline to intervene.”
