Murder victim’s family on arrest in 1990 Starkville, Miss., cold case | Forensic Files

so Shep this has been an ordeal for you as well more so than I think we've acknowledged yet how how are you feeling
now mostly has been a a a relief assuming that um he's not going to get loose not going to have
an opportunity to wreak this havoc on other people what do you think should happen to him if he's if he's
found guilty he is not among the world's outstanding citizens I would I would think and yet uh I wouldn't
wish you know death upon him even though it seems to be appropriate and do you have a sense now
that this is over that your family can get past this this helps this helps hopefully this will
will answer a lot of questions cuz I can remember going in Katherine's house right afterward and
thinking what happened here and 28 years since then we still don't know but now you know that's the kind of
closure that I'm really interested in and I'm not filled with hate you know it's just it is a sad
thing
