By: Joe T.
A self-published novel written by the suspect in the killing of Utah college student Mackenzie Lueck was pulled from Amazon on Monday.
The book by Ayoola Ajayi, titled “Forge Identity,” was pulled from the online retailer after he was arrested and charged with murder.
His former wife also accused him of domestic abuse.
The novel details graphic killings and a young man’s quest for revenge, according to an online description.
“Ezekiel was almost 15 when he witnessed a gruesome murder. An angry mob burned his neighbor alive in the street and the man died at his feet. Sadly, it was not the last time he witnessed such horror,” the description reads.
Lueck, 23, disappeared on June 17 after taking a Lyft from Salt Lake City International Airport to a park in the northern side of the city.
One week later, Ajayi was arrested on charges of aggravated murder, aggravated kidnapping, desecration of a body and obstruction of justice.
Officials said Lueck’s last text communications were with Ajayi.
On Sunday Ajayi’s estranged wife came public to describe how the murder suspect had slashed her with a butcher’s knife and threatening to kill her.
Tenisha Jenkins Ajayi, 35, told The Daily Mail that she wants to testify in court about how “aggressive and controlling” he is, saying, “If he took an innocent child, he needs to spend his life in jail.”
