LANCASTER COUNTY, S.C. — David Pate, a Lancaster man with "Satan" tattooed on his face and a split pierced tongue, who has been jailed since 2013 for killing a friend and leaving the body to be found, pleaded guilty to murder Thursday morning in court.

Prosecutors said Pate killed Rickey James in October of 2013 and buried his body in the woods.

Shortly after Pate pleaded guilty the judge sentenced him to life in prison.

Investigators said DNA tests led to the murder charge but they still don't know how James died.

Pate faces 30 years to life in prison.

Maybe he ISN’T guilty.

This could be a case of mistaken identity...

Not only did he get busted for murder, but those truth in advertising laws are a bitch.

Naw he was a hockey fan and he was just honoring his favorite player.

Would that be Miroslav by any chance?

I don’t have any tattoos myself, but I was called into jury duty once with the defendant covered in tattoos on his neck and face. He was in his early 30’s. I remember thinking, if he didn’t have those tattoos he would be considered a good looking guy. During a break one of the would be jurors said, “If it quacks like a duck”. The judge asked everyone if they were afraid of people with tattoos, a lot of people said yes, but when it came around to me I said I was more scared of badges and gavels than tattoos.

Needless to say, I wasn’t chosen as a juror.

FYI, the “974” tattoo on its neck refer to 1) His IQ, 2) the number of times daily that he’ll be servicing his roommates, and 3) the odds that he doesn’t last a year in the Hotel Razorwire.
