Death of Jason Sweeney
Jason Keel Sweeney was a teenager from Fishtown, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, who at the age of 16 was murdered by four teenagers for his paycheck on May 30, 2003. The manner in which Sweeney was murdered, age of the teens involved, and the seeming indifference of the perpetrators received national media coverage.
==Murder==
Jason Sweeney worked for his father, who was a contractor in Pennsylvania doing construction. He had recently met a girl he liked, Justina Morley, a 15-year-old whom he had a date with on a Friday night. Unbeknownst to Sweeney, Morley was regularly engaging in sexual relations with two of the killers, Nicholas Coia and Edward Batzig Jr., around the time of the attacks. Morley lured Sweeney to "the trails," a wooded area of Fishtown near the Delaware River, after promising him sex, where three males awaited, 16-year-old Edward Batzig Jr., Nicholas Coia, 16, and his brother Domenic, 17. Edward Batzig Jr., Sweeney's best friend since the fourth grade, took the first blow, striking Sweeney in the head 4 to 5 times. The three teenage boys pummeled Sweeney, primarily on his head and face, with a hatchet, a hammer and a rock until he was dead and then stole the $500 cash he earned from work. Sweeney's head was crushed and the only bone left undamaged was his left cheekbone. After they left the crime scene, they had a group hug, split the money and bought illegal drugs—heroin, marijuana and xanax—and then partied together.
Domenic Coia confessed in a court hearing that they were all involved in the murder of Sweeney. The police said the murder was planned days before. Part of the preparation of the murder was by listening to the song "Helter Skelter" by the Beatles, over forty times. Joshua Stabb, 18, a friend of Domenic Coia, said that the group had bragged about their plan to kill Sweeney by using Justina Morley as "bait". Stabb also said that Batzig knew that Sweeney would have his paycheck earnings on him on the day of the murder. The prosecutor asked Stabb about the teens' demeanor after the killing. Stabb said: "They seemed pretty fine." "In a way, happy." All of the four teens were drug addicts, but they were not high before they murdered Sweeney. One of the detectives had asked Domenic Coia if they were high during the killing. Coia's response was: "No, I was as sober as I am now. It is sick, isn't it?" Batzig, the best friend, told a detective how he hit Sweeney with the hatchet face four or five times. Batzig said, "Jason started begging for his life, but we just kept hitting him." Batzig also said that Sweeney looked at him during the beating and said "Please stop, I'm bleeding." after that he hit Jason again with the axe. They then finished by dropping a boulder rock on the left side of his face.
