An Oklahoma man suspected of murdering three people has
confessed to killing his neighbor, cutting her heart out and
then cooking it to feed his family, authorities said.
Lawrence Anderson allegedly stabbed Andrea Lynn Blankenship, 41,
to death in her Chickasha home on Feb. 9, The Oklahoman reported.
“He took the heart back to 214 West Minnesota, Chickasha,” an
agent with the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation wrote in a
search warrant obtained by the outlet.
“He cooked the heart with potatoes to feed to his family to
release the demons.”
Anderson had been staying at the 214 West Minnesota address with
his aunt, Delsie Pye, and uncle, Leon Pye, after his early
prison release in January.
After leaving Blankenship’s home, Anderson, 42, went back to the
Pye’s home where he cooked the heart with the intention of
feeding it to them.
He then allegedly killed Leon Pye, 67, and his 4-year-old
granddaughter, Kaeos Yates, and stabbed his aunt, according to
the outlet citing the Oklahoma Bureau of Investigation.
His aunt survived the attack. He was arrested the day of the
murders.
Authorities discovered Blankenship’s body two days later after
Anderson confessed at a hospital in Oklahoma City where he was
being treated. He’s being held in Grady County jail, and charges
are pending.
Anderson has a long criminal record that includes drug
convictions and domestic violence.
