Wyatt had cut out Davis’ still-beating heart and burnt it, believing that his friend had been possessed by the Devil and that was the only way to banish it.

Wyatt was charged with first-degree murder and torture because Davis was alive when he had cut out his heart. His initial plea of insanity did not hold up in court and he later pled guilty. He was sentenced to 47 years in prison.
