Man charged with killing two for $20
Friday, May 28, 2004 Posted: 12:04 PM EDT (1604 GMT)

PITTSBURGH, Pennyslvania (AP) -- A man was arrested and charged with strangling his aunt with a phone cord and stabbing her boyfriend to death because she wouldn't give him $20 to buy crack cocaine, police said.

Dwayne Kirk, 43, of Pittsburgh, was charged Thursday with criminal homicide in the May 10 deaths of Maryetta Cohen, 59, and William Alfred Wade Jr., 65.

Police also have charged Kirk's neighbor William Kenley, 49, with homicide in the slayings, alleging that he acted as a lookout.

Kirk had been interviewed by police after the killings but was released. Police said they linked him to the slayings through an inmate at the Allegheny County Jail who said he overhead Kirk telling Kenley to stay quiet when they were jailed on other charges.

Kenley and Kirk were held in the Allegheny County Jail without bond with a hearing on the charges set for June 7. A phone number for Kirk was disconnected, while Kenley did not have a listed phone number. It was unclear whether either man had an attorney.
Good Lord, it's $20. Is that guy seriously that deranged that he had to kill two people because he couldn't get money from them to buy his drugs?

Or you know, because you have the wrong color skin or sexuality. I don't think any of those reasons are anymore understandable than a crackhead killing someone for drug money,

I still find it shocking. I've heard of cases where people have been killed for the sake of 20p. Still it sickens me to hear of new cases, even if they are over more money. I think it's good to be shocked, I don't want to just accept that these things happen.

Aren't a lot of bikes worth more than $20?

hey, i think i was misunderstood...
in some places they kill you if you have no many at all, if you have plenty of money, and they kill you for an old bike (here are called beach bikes) that's is on it's last legs.. they kill you just for the 'fun' of killing you, not for what they get...
i think you understood my post as i was saying you shouldn't be shocked about this incident, which it's not true. what i meant was: don't ever go to those places where this kind of events are common because you'll get a heart attack.

Understood . I was just trying to say that where I grew up was pretty rough yet I am still saddened and shocked that these things still occur.

Sadly I wouldn't be shocked enough to have a heart attack because of all the crap that goes on around back home near me. It's just plain awful. When I hear of the violent crimes near my area I feel sick to my stomach .
