   A 33-year-old Nebraska man on death row for killing four people   
   within 10 days in 2013 has at least one friend still in his   
   corner: a 46-year-old Texas woman who reportedly has confirmed   
   that she and the killer plan to marry.   
      
   But Dawn Arguello of Lubbock isn’t happy that Nikko Jenkins –   
   who authorities say committed the murders within three weeks of   
   being released from prison on a robbery and assault conviction –   
   recently had her name tattooed on his face.   
      
   “I was very (ticked) off that he did that,” Arguello told the   
   Omaha World-Herald. “He doesn’t need to be self-mutilating like   
   that.”   
      
   Arguello added she isn’t happy about the way her husband-to-be   
   has been portrayed in the local press.   
      
   “If you believe the media,” she said, “he’s the most hated man   
   in Nebraska besides Charles Starkweather.”   
      
   The reference was to the 1950s serial killer of 11 people whose   
   story inspired several movies, including “Badlands” in 1973 and   
   “Natural Born Killers” in 1994. After his conviction in one of   
   the murders, Starkweather was executed in Nebraska in 1959 at   
   age 20.   
      
   Jenkins is not like Starkweather at all, she said.   
      
   “He’s not what the media has made him out to be,” she told the   
   World-Herald. “He’s an enigma. He has feelings. He’s very   
   sensitive.   
      
   "He’s not what the media has made him out to be. He’s an enigma.   
   He has feelings. He’s very sensitive."   
      
   — Dawn Arguello, fiancee of death-row inmate   
   “He’s very intelligent,” she added, “and, yes, he’s very   
   manipulating.”   
      
   According to authorities, Jenkins received help from family   
   members in executing the four murders to which he’s been linked.   
   They say he convinced his sister and a female cousin to lure two   
   men with a promise of sex acts in an Omaha park, then Jenkins   
   himself appeared and suddenly blasted the two men in their heads   
   with a shotgun.   
      
   A few days later, Jenkins, his sister and another man went to a   
   neighborhood in Omaha, supposedly to commit a robbery. Instead,   
   Jenkins killed the man, authorities said.   
      
   Then a few days after that, Jenkins pulled a mother of three out   
   of her SUV and killed her, according to authorities.   
      
   Jenkins' death sentence, issued in 2017, was Nebraska's first   
   since the state's voters reinstated capital punishment in a   
   November 2016 vote.   
      
   In 2014, however, the Nebraska Legislature ordered a special   
   investigation into Jenkins’ case because some critics noted   
   that, while in prison prior to the murders, Jenkins had spent   
   more than half of his sentence in solitary confinement. The   
   critics claimed the isolation may have had an effect on his   
   mental health, possibly resulting in the killing spree so soon   
   after he was released.   
      
   Arguello met Jenkins while doing volunteer work for a nonprofit   
   organization that advocates for death-row inmates and their   
   families. She also has a criminal record of her own, with   
   convictions for misdemeanor domestic violence, felony child   
   abuse and felony credit card abuse, the World-Herald reported.
