I'm glad you all have already picked up and started on another trial to sleuth. I wish I could do the same. I have nothing but good things to say to or about you all. But I am not ready to go on to talking about some other murder trial. I felt a big sense of relief today. Kathy's family...

I appreciate your matter-of-fact approach and thoughts, Madeleine. I would say that your statement that Kathy's story "got lost a bit in the mix" is a big understatement, though. Kathy was a mother of four children and grandmother to 7 or 8 babies. She was also an extraordinary citizen and a...

Let me ask you all a question....now that we know that Kathy's daughters want for him to get the death penalty, does it change your mind in the direction of DP or reinforce any beliefs you had before about the sentence of death? Speaking for myself, I have not had a strong opinion about what his...

This answers your question about how Kathy's daughters feel about him getting the DP. http://www2.nbc17.com/news/2012/jun/06/6/prosecution-tells-jury-williford-deserves-death-pe-ar-2337009/

Let's see what Saacks has to say tomorrow. I couldn't listen to any more testimony but I'm very interested in hearing what Saacks has to say tomorrow. I think he's going to go for the jugular and try for the death penalty. He won't likely get it but I do think he's going to go for it.

Rigby, I'll check in until this is all done and over with. But I can't listen to any more testimony. I had a lot of questions when this trial began, some of which have been answered and some of which will probably never be answered. I can't say I could ever understand why it happened but I...

Hey all, I decided not to listen today so I missed his ex-girlfriend's testimony. I'm glad I missed it. I don't need to hear anything more about what evil things Jason has done. This evening, I've been trying to listen to the WRAL recordings of his dad, Keith (who I met a few times and...

I spoke to a friend of mine today, who is a psychiatrist. He lives in this neighborhood and has been quite interested in the case, so he listened/read quite a bit of the testimony during the trial. He said, "I don't know that Jason was bipolar at all. He certainly didn't exhibit any of the...

Gracie, you take care of yourself. What you're going through sounds absolutely miserable.

My personal, overall feeling is a mix of relief and sadness. I imagine most of you feel the same way. Jason is guilty and I'm glad he'll never, ever get out of prison. This jury made the right decision. Kathy Taft's life was taken from her, her kids lost their mama, her grandchildren lost...

Glad to have this done and in the past! http://www2.nbc17.com/news/2012/jun/01/jason-williford-jury-breaks-lunch-deliberations-co-ar-2325058/

Thanks, Mad. Yes, my roomie/best friend and I have lived here for about 7 years now so we lived here long before Jessica and Jason moved in. Her reaction is different from mine but I totally understand where she's coming from. She, of course, spoke to Jason on occasion, too, and got to know...

I feel a little embarrassed to post this badly-written poem/song I wrote before Jason got arrested. I always thought I heard something outside, in the backyard, late at night. That noise stopped after he was arrested. I don't know that it was Jason out there but after hearing the testimony in...

Ha! Weeellll, NCEast, I'm going to have to think about getting involved in watching another murder trial. I can't imagine I'd have as much interest, for obvious reasons. Dear God, I hope I never have another reason to be this interested in another murder trial! Thanks for your comments...

It has been a pleasure reading all of your thoughts and ideas. It's a terrible thing we've been discussing but I wanted to thank you all for being so kind to me. I'm really ready for this verdict to be read and for this whole thing to be in past but I have to say, I think I'm going to miss you...

I agree with you all. Mr. Saacks did a fantastic job throughout this whole trial, really, and his closing statement was spectacular! I really was not at all impressed with any of the defense lawyers. I understand that Jason is a very difficult person to defend but I don't think they did a...

This Mr. Driver simply and straight up LIED about Dr. Wolfe. I hope the jury takes note of that.

I hate that I missed it. My internet connection got squirrely there for a couple of minutes. What was the name?

Watching intently today. I am not a fan of these defense lawyers.

I'm a Montanan so I grew up hunting. I know how to work any firearm you hand me and I'm comfortable with them. I own several guns. I've been raised to only use a gun while hunting. If I were to ever use one to defend myself, the situation would have to be dire - somebody was right in my face...
