''Nearly 16 years after a Georgia woman was stabbed to death, investigators say they’ve charged a man with her murder.
Officials say 32-year-old Sandra Robinson was found dead inside the Prepaid Superstore where she worked in Douglas, Georgia on March 17, 2010. Robinson’s boyfriend called 911 after he found that the store’s doors were locked during business hours.
Officers found the mother of four stabbed to death in the back of the store. Her killing had been a mystery for over a decade.''

''Hamilton said that the GBI was able to link 58-year-old Willie James Jr. of Wayne County to the crime through forensic evidence. Investigators say James was an associate of Robinson and went to the phone store often.

Agents took James into custody in Valdosta on Monday. He’s now in custody at the Coffee County Jail, charged with malice murder, felony murder, and aggravated assault.''

“My mom was a comedian,” Trey Robinson said. “She liked to have a good time. So when I think about my mom, it’s always the smallest things that, you know, they get me a little emotional. But now, all we have left is memories. So we’re going to dwell on those memories and the good times that we had. So feeling good.”
