Houston County District Attorney Russ Goodman said reports that he plans to seek the death in the tossing of a newborn in a trash-compacting dumpster are premature.
DOTHAN, Ala. - Houston County District Attorney Russ Goodman said reports that he plans to seek death in the tossing of a newborn in a trash-compacting dumpster are premature.
Goodman told News4 that a decision on the death penalty will be made at the appropriate time, noting the case still awaits grand jury action. After that hearing, a Dothan website reported that prosecutors promised to seek Williams’ execution, a report Goodman termed incorrect.As it stands now, Williams would either be executed or receive life without parole, though prosecutors could choose to remove execution from consideration.
