Trivia
In 2008, DeLeon was put on trial for the 2004 first degree murder of Tom and Jackie Hawks. According to the prosecution DeLeon and his accomplices, including his then-wife Jennifer Henderson (who is already serving two back-to-back life sentences), pretended to be interested in buying a yacht belonging to the Hawks. He convinced them to go out to sea for a test cruise and forced them to sign the ownership documents in his name, before tying them to the anchor and throwing them overboard while still alive. He was convicted on three counts of first-degree murder, (one charge stemmed from another case) and special circumstances for financial gain and multiple victims on October 20, 2008. On April 14, 2009, he was sentenced to death for the murders of Tom and Jackie Hawks.
