A teen prostitute has been brutally murdered after arguing with her client over the price of sex.
John Gillum, 29, killed Morgan Huennekens, 19, with a knife and pipe before dragging her body into a shed behind his home.
The next day he turned himself into officers in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
Morgan’s lifeless body was discovered by police wrapped in blankets in the shed with two belts wrapped around her.
Gillum told investigators that he met Huennekens a few days ago prior.
They exchanged numbers and began messaging about exchanging sex for money, according to KTLA.
The teen came to his home on Saturday, and she said she would leave if he didn’t pay her more for sex.
Gillum told authorities that made him angry so he punched her in the mouth.
He tied her up, raped her and took a knife and stabbed her in the neck.
According to court documents about the case, Gillum knew how stab someone after ‘watching movies.’
His initial reasoning for committing the murder was because ‘he sensed something in his head that he had to kill the victim.’
Gillum noticed the victim was ‘suffering’ so he then hit her over the head with a metal pipe so ‘she no longer had to suffer’.
An argument initially started between the pair after he agreed to pay $160 for sex and gave her $200, but she refused to give him change.
He then tied her to his bed post to prevent her from leaving the house.
Gillum admitted that Huennekens asked him to stop and ‘begged for her life’ before he stabbed her ‘five or six times’.
An autopsy revealed that the victim died of multiple stab wounds and blunt force trauma.
John Gillum faces one count of first-degree intentional homicide and one count of second-degree sexual assault for the attack and murder of Morgan Huennekens.
