Waaaaaa… sniffle sniffle… former NBA balla Jayson Williams bawled in court today as he expressed his so-called remorse for fatally blasting his limo driver with a shotgun five years ago. Williams not only killed a man, he conspired with witnesses to cover up the crime and make people believe the guy shot himself!
To the horror of the victim’s family, Williams has run free for the past five years and not had to answer for murder. Today he was sentenced to five years in prison, although it is highly probable he will get out after 18 months as long as he behaves. We’re not trying to rub it in, but given Williams’ ego, we have to wonder if his tears were streaming because he knew he was about to go to the big house for a long time, or because he’s generally sorry for what he did. We’ll probably never know. Let’s just hope SOMETHING good comes out of this. Maybe Williams will get out of prison and making a positive change in the world. People CAN change.
