Amy Robinson was a 19-year-old disabled girl who lost her life on February 15, 1998. Since her childhood days, she suffered from a mental disability. Furthermore, she even had Turner’s Syndrome. Due to these conditions, she had restricted height and underdeveloped sexual features.
Robinson worked as a cashier in a grocery store in her hometown of Arlington, Texas. On the day of her murder, she was riding her bicycle to work when two individuals approached her. These two were 23-year-old Michael Wayne Hall and 18-year-old Robert Neville. The 19-year-old knew both of them, so when the duo offered her a lift, she obliged.
Michael Wayne Hall and Robert Neville drove Robinson to a rural field in Fort Worth and instructed her to exit the car. After her exit, the duo shot her multiple times with a pellet gun, a crossbow, and a .22 caliber rifle. According to Morbidology, Robinson kept crying, but Hall and Neville laughed and kept on torturing her. She finally died after a bullet penetrated her skull.
This horrific case was showcased in detail on Prosecuting Evil With Kelly Siegler, which aired on December 8, 2023, at 8 p.m. ET on Oxygen. The episode was titled The Most Innocent Victim.
The official synopsis of The Most Innocent Victim read, “Amy Robinson, a teenager with Turner’s syndrome, had just taken her first steps toward independence by getting a job at her local grocery store; her new endeavor ends in tragedy when she befriends a co-worker with a secret past.”
