On July 7, 2010, in Jacksonville, Florida, 21-year-old Tiara Nichelle Pool (September 7, 1988 – July 7, 2010), the wife of a Navy sailor, was murdered by a man named David Kelsey Sparre (born July 7, 1991), with whom she first met through Craigslist. After having sex with Pool, Sparre killed Pool by inflicting an estimated 89 knife wounds on her body and five days later, Pool's corpse was found inside her apartment. Sparre, who was dubbed the "Craigslist killer" due to how he first met Pool, was arrested in South Carolina three weeks after the killing and he was charged with first-degree murder. Sparre was found guilty of murdering Pool and sentenced to death on March 30, 2012. As of 2026, Sparre remains on death row awaiting execution at the Union Correctional Institution.
