Serial Killer Removed from Sentencing After Singing During Victim Impact Statements

David Misch, convicted of murdering two best friends in 1986, displayed no remorse during his sentencing, where he was sentenced to 50 years to life in prison.

• David Misch, 63, was sentenced to two consecutive 25-years-to-life terms for the 1986 murders of Jennifer Duey, 20, and Michelle Xavier, 18, in Fremont, California.
• Misch disrupted the sentencing hearing by singing '99 Bottles of Beer' during victim impact statements, leading to his removal from the courtroom.
• DNA evidence found under Duey’s fingernails and a partial license plate written on Xavier’s hand linked Misch to the crime decades later.
• Misch is already serving a life sentence for a 1989 murder and is awaiting trial for the alleged 1988 kidnapping and murder of 9-year-old Michaela Garecht.
• The families of Duey and Xavier waited nearly 40 years for justice, with prosecutors condemning Misch’s courtroom behavior as a blatant display of no remorse.
