Ricky Lee Blackwell Is A Monster


July 9, 2009


CHESNEE, S.C. - I heard this one on the news this morning, and what Ricky Lee Blackwell, 49, did just absolutely sickens me in just how cold-blooded it was. On Wednesday, Ricky’s estranged wife went to their adult daughter’s trailer to swim. She brought her current boyfriend’s daughter, 8-year-old Heather Center, along with her. At some point Ricky, who lives next door, arrived at the residence. No reports on what kind of exchange happened between Ricky and his estranged wife, but Ricky grabbed Heather in a headlock, and shot her once in the head. He then shot her a few more times as she fell to the ground.

When police arrived on the scene, they found Heather lying face down in a driveway. They could see that she had been shot in the leg, the center of her back, and there was blood coming from her right ear. Ricky eventually emerged from some nearby woods he had been hiding in. This piece of shit, after committing this cowardly act, then committed another by shooting himself in the side when police closed in on him. He has since recovered from surgery and once coherent, he will be charged with murder and kidnapping.

Police say that Ricky has a long criminal record, but are as shocked as we are at what he has done. “I don’t know where you can go in the mind to justify shooting a child,” said Spartanburg County Sheriff Chuck Wright. “I don’t understand how you can get so angry.” One neighbor (who wanted to remain unidentified) stated that “Ricky was a fine man…He must have just lost it. I really don’t know why he done what he done. But in my mind, Ricky has always been a fine man.”

My condolences to Heather’s family, I couldn’t possibly fathom what you are going through right now.
