Local Man Sentenced To Die For Killing Woman And Child

Columbus Division of Police

A Columbus man has been sentenced to death for fatally stabbing his 4-year-old daughter and her mother outside their home last year. 

26-year-old Kristofer Garrett was convicted of aggravated murder in the deaths of his daughter, Kristina Duckson, and her mother, Nicole Duckson. The last time a death sentence was issued in Franklin County was for Caron Montgomery in 2012 for killing his girlfriend and her two children. 

Jim has been with WCBE since 1996. Before that he worked as a reporter at another Columbus radio station, and for three newspapers in Southwest Florida.
