usa countries
Newly released police footage shows the moment a convicted murderer tried to negotiate a holiday with his family in exchange for cooperation. In the video, Tanner Horner, who is serving 40 years for the murder of a 7-year-old FedEx driver, is seen speaking with investigators. He tells them that spending Christmas time with his family was his "price" for providing information. Horner did not specify what information he was offering. The police did not agree to his demand. He was later convicted and sentenced for the abduction and murder of Athena Strand in 2022. The interview occurred while he was a suspect in that case. The release of this footage provides a disturbing look into the interrogation of the convicted killer.
