You cannot even assume that they were innocent of David's crimes

"The weren't guilty of David's crime" is not logic. It's a statement.

He did lots & lots of killing in the first part of the bible. Then, by the last part, he switched to the more merciful habit of torturing people forever in Hell. Looks like he still doesn't play!

what part about god do you not understand?
only diff is what you do here and where you end up forever.

I'll leave the "torturing people" bit off, because as you know, I'm not a big fan of that, but hell is simply the "not God" option of the afterlife. If you've said you don't want to be with God here, you won't be with God there, and the only other (apparent) option to being with God is being without him.

In the same post you claim to use what's written in the bible you claim what's written in the bible cannot be used. Circular logic much?

No. You've demonstrated that people were killed for another person's crime, but you have no knowledge of their crimes.

In a story Jesus tells, the man who is carried away into hell cries: ". . .I am tormented in this FLAME." Luke 16:24
Jesus and other parts of the NT are fairly descriptive of "Hell", though many modern christians argue as you have: that it's simply a "separation from god".
