A murder-for-hire killing that left a father and son dead in Loris will be featured on an upcoming Investigation Discovery television show.<\/p>\n

The crime-focused channel will air a new episode at 9 p.m. Oct. 22 of “Relatively Evil,” which recounts the killing of Amos Hatfield and his son, Tommy. Investigation Discovery is channel 138 on Spectrum and channel 285 on DirectTV.<\/p>\n

Amos Hatfield’s wife, Sandy Locklear, is featured on the show. Initially, Locklear said she was the victim of a sexual assault, but police soon charged her with murder. She is serving life in prison and is housed at the Graham Correctional Institution in Columbia.<\/p>\n

Odom Bryant is also serving life in prison for his roles in the murder. Nehemiah James Evans was also convicted of murder and sentenced to 30 years in prison.<\/p>\n

Prosecutors said the Locklear, Bryant and Evans conspired to kill for a $1 million life insurance policy. The Hatfields were found dead in the Loris home where the two were shot execution-style.<\/p>\n

“I’m sorry for what happened to the victims and their family,” Evans said before sentencing in 2015. “I will take responsibility even though I did not see the crime occur.”<\/p>\n

Amos Hatfield’s daughter also testified at that hearing and said justice was finally served.<\/p>\n

“I’m so glad my daddy and brother can rest in peace now,” she said in 2015.<\/p>\n

The “Relatively Evil” episode features interviews with attorneys involved in the case, video from police interviews and recreations of the crime.<\/p>\n
