On the night of Sept. 30, 1994, he broke into the home of Baker as the Aggie junior slept. She awoke, was bound with duct tape, then was fatally shot in the head. “How do you explain it?” said Bill Turner, the Brazos County district attorney who pros ecuted Shamburger. “It’s real frightening. “He does look like the boy next door. He does look like the guy you might trust, but there was more to him than that.” “I don’t know why you do the things you do,” Shamburger said recently from death row. “One thing leads to another... You lose touch with reality. You've chosen to do things that are wrong. “There was an adrenaline rush to it — the satisfaction of not being caught.” Baker’s roommate, 20-year-old Victoria Kohler, returning home, heard noises from Baker’s room and walked in that direction when she was confronted by Shamburger. He abducted Kohler and stuffed her in the trunk of her car, driving her around town before leaving her in the vehicle not far from home. Then he returned to the murder scene, retrieved a can of gasoline from his own car parked outside, cut some of Baker’s hair from around her fatal head injury and used a knife to poke at the wound in an unsuccess ful search for the bullet. He poured gasoline in the room and over her body and set it ablaze only to discover the keys to his car were inside the burning room. They had fallen from his shirt pocket. Baker’s brother, who lived next door, heard the explosion and tried to break windows to get his sister out. Shamburger was in the back yard by then, walking in circles, holding his pistol and repeating: “She’s dead." Kohler in the meantime had climbed from the trunk of her car, went to a nearby house and had the people there call 911. Shamburger fled, called a friend, a min ister at his church, met him and told him about the killing. They both went to the police station where Shamburger turned himself in to authorities. “In this case, he breaks in with tape, a gun. gasoline,” Turner said, explaining why he went for the death penalty although Shamburger had l w is record. “The prvmcite ■Piivalaiion.
