Alton Coleman (November 6, 1955 – April 26, 2002) was an American serial killer who, along with accomplice Debra Brown (born November 11, 1962), committed a crime spree across six states between May and July 1984 that resulted in the deaths of eight people. Coleman, who received death sentences in three states, was executed by the state of Ohio in 2002. Brown was sentenced to death in Illinois and Indiana, but the sentences were later reduced to life imprisonment without parole and 140 years, respectively.
In June 1984, Coleman and Brown encountered two young girls in Gary, Indiana: 9-year-old Annie Turks and her niece, 7-year-old Tamika Turks. The couple sexually assaulted the two children. Annie survived the violent attack, but Tamika did not; her partially decomposed body was discovered on June 19. The same day, Donna Williams, a 25-year-old woman from Gary, disappeared. On July 11 her decomposed body was discovered in Detroit, Michigan, about half a mile from where her car was found. She had been raped and killed by ligature strangulation.
On June 28, Coleman and Brown entered the home of Palmer Jones and his wife, Marjorie of Dearborn Heights, Michigan, whom they beat severely. Coleman ripped the telephone from their wall before stealing money and their car.
On April 25, 2002, Coleman was transferred approximately 150 miles from the Mansfield Correctional Institution to the Southern Ohio Correctional Facility in Lucasville where his execution would be carried out. Due to the scope of Coleman's crimes, the correctional facility planned to show his execution to victims and their loved ones using the prison's closed-circuit television system to accommodate a large amount of people. On April 16 Coleman's attorneys had argued that this set-up would turn his execution into a "spectator sport" and was unconstitutional because it violated an Ohio broadcasting law. But Judge Beverly Pfeiffer of the Ohio Court of Common Pleas ruled that privately showing his execution on the prison's closed-circuit television system did not qualify as a broadcast.
For his last meal, Coleman ordered a well-done filet mignon smothered with mushrooms, fried chicken breasts, a salad with French dressing, sweet potato pie topped with whipped cream, French fries, collard greens, onion rings, cornbread, broccoli with melted cheese, biscuits and gravy, and Cherry Coke. Before his execution, he released a letter apologizing for what he'd done.
On April 26, reciting Psalm 23, Alton Coleman was executed by lethal injection in the death chamber at the Southern Ohio Correctional Facility in Lucasville. Reginald Wilkinson, director of the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction, said Coleman had not directly expressed remorse for the killings, but that he had "admitted what he's done in his own convoluted way."
Coleman had received two death sentences from Ohio, and one each from Illinois and Indiana. At the time of his execution, he was the only condemned person in the United States to have death sentences in three states.
