Sneak peek: "48 Hours" Presents: Temptation in Texas | Forensic Files

Michelle and Greg Williams K been married for some time and she was enjoying a nice lifestyle his job was to
make the money and Michelle's job was to spend the money Greg treated me like a queen he showed me a world that before
him I had no means to have my mother is's captivating she's easy on the eyes she's extremely
intelligent just being able to say the right things at the right time to get what she wants
my brother treated her like gold she had everything did you feel as though Michelle targeted your brother
once she realized he had money she was all about the money the lifestyle Michelle Williams is a
manipulator she's had great success manipulating men she's manipulated husbands she's manipulated boyfriends
she had to be the center stage at all times you know she thought she was God's gift
[Music] I hear an echoing sound that wakes me up I walked to the bedroom and all of a sudden I get
hit Greg's in bed and I realized oh my God he's been shot 91 where is the emergency oh my God
I called my sister and told her Greg is dead Michelle killed him you know that's where I'm trying to
determine did I hear The Gunshot did I see the person I don't know what I saw first there were parts of the story that
really didn't make a lot of sense the first time that she told it CS almost three months after a color man was found
shot in his own bed police have arrested his wife we became convinced very quickly
that indeed Michelle was responsible for this there was no eyewitness there were
some shortcomings in the investigation no fingerprints there was a question of the crime scene being tampered with no
DNA that links Michelle to this killing the Judgment was made to to offer a plea
deal they didn't have the evidence to go forward with a murder trial at the time
the District Attorney's Office wanted her and the judge wanted her to take responsibility and what changed well
primarily the interview please have a seat here that Michelle did with you immediately before the judge was to
accept her plea deal every time I watch a client in an interview I start to think oh man we're really screwed did
you murder your husband Greg no I did not that undermines the validity of her plea and caused me to go in and ask the
judge to strike that plea deal Lady Justice may very well be be blind but she's neither deaf nor
stupid if you're innocent have a trial let the chips fall they make state is going to produce videos of
the show 48 Hours who shot Greg I have my assumptions I've been trying cases for
more than 40 Years Michelle Williams case has to rank up there as one of the most bizarre that I've been involved in
