Daniel Marsh first made local headlines in 2008 at the age of 10 after receiving an American Red Cross Heroes Award for using CPR to save his father’s life who was having a heart attack. Although, it was around the same time his parents were going through a divorce due to his mother's affair with his former kindergarten teacher. This really stuck with Daniel and at the young age of 10, he was beginning to be enraged with the woman that his mother had left his father for. He plotted to slit her throat or strangle her to death and began to have dreams of killing people. At 11, he told a therapist about fantasies of torturing people and his desire to make those fantasies come true. Unfortunately, nobody took him seriously and he acted on those fantasies.
