Both 22-year-old Reginald and 20-year-old Jonathan had lengthy criminal records. The Carr brothers are incarcerated on death row at Eldorado Correctional Facility.

On July 25, 2014, the Kansas Supreme Court again overturned the Carrs' death sentences on a legal technicality relating to their original trial judge not giving each brother a separate penalty proceeding. In 2004, the Kansas Supreme Court overturned the state's death penalty law but the Kansas Attorney General appealed to the US Supreme Court which upheld the constitutionality of the death penalty in Kansas. The case has received significant attention because the killers' death sentences have been subject to various rulings related to the use of executions in Kansas. Their vicious crimes created panic in the Wichita area resulting in an increase in the sales of guns, locks, and home security systems. They were both sentenced to death in October 2002. The brothers were arrested and convicted of multiple counts of murder, kidnapping, robbery, and rape. Five people were killed and a woman was severely wounded. The Wichita Massacre, also known as the Wichita Horror, was a week-long series of random brutal crimes perpetrated by brothers Reginald and Jonathan Carr in the city of Wichita, Kansas between December 8 and 15, 2000.
