Seath Jackson was feeling hopeful when his ex girlfriend, 15-year-old Amber Wright, texted him to discuss potentially getting back together. The two had had an ugly breakup, with Seath allegedly cheating on Amber and hitting her throughout the relationship. After things ended with them, Amber began dating another male by the name of Michael Bargo, who despised Seath. On April 17, 2011, when Seath arrived at the home address in Summerfield, Florida, where Amber instructed him to meet her at, he was immediately ambushed by Michael and three other youths, including Amber’s stepbrother. First, they attacked him with wooden objects. Then, he was shot by Michael and placed in a bathtub where his knees were broken. When they saw that Seath was still alive, they decided to stuff him into a sleeping bag and set it ablaze. With the help of Michael’s stepfather, who was aware of the plan to kill Seath, the teens then dismembered his charred remains and placed them into paint cans that were subsequently discarded in a lime quarry. All who were involved in the gruesome murder of Seath Jackson were sentenced to life in prison except for Michael, the ringleader of the crime, who was handed the death penalty.
