A Time To Kill

We are ready to go.

“The biggest advantage of Shopify for me is”

that we don't need technical details for the company.

We all know about the background and the front end. And as soon as we go into the mobile game, the online shop. If you want to go to Shopify, then you will get the platform that's actually going on. It's simply the main thing.

Our whole business is going to go over Shopify. Now let's start our test at Shopify.com. [MUSIC PLAYING] Franklin County is a small country, place. [MUSIC PLAYING]

It's country. And in Caronsville, nothing but a little speck. And nothing really much goes on there. Sterling Barbara wants a life. Why it is his hometown in rural Georgia?

“I want to be a good dad, a good husband, raise my family,”

write, and take care of my mom making it comfortable for her. Sterling has got a heart and biggest Texas. From the day he was born, he's taking a big bite out of life. Everything he's done has been full speed ahead. Hey, Sterling.

But Sterling's simple goals had to be put off. After what happened on a dirt road in the middle of nowhere, he was just 17, the night he met Gerald Douglas Wyatt. It's the most period you ever had. You can't describe how it was.

To his wife, Wyatt was the perfect family man. He was a very kind, caring man. To others, he was a predator. When I saw this in a very evil man.

Sterling Barbara done one hour always wished to go out of town.

I had no other choice. I was nothing else I could have done. And if they consider that wrong, then I just have to accept it. If you believe Sterling, on the night of November 27, 1995, he was just killing time at a truck stop.

One of the few public places open near his home. I was at Petro. I got off from night school, I went up there to get some deething out a little bit. And I was watching a movie, and whenever I came out of the movie room, he approached me. According to Sterling, Wyatt said he was a private detective and asked him for help.

He was checking out a lawyer's wife that was supposedly cheating on him. They were fixing to get a divorce, and he needed evidence. He said, "I look like a local, I want some help." Wyatt offered Sterling $40 to drive him around town, but things started to go bad soon after they left the truck stop in Wyatt's car.

I said it in about a time we go back to Petro. Barbara says his new acquaintance told him he had to relieve himself. Whenever he came back in, his pants were on button and unzipped, and he climbed over on top of him. He put his forearm in my throat, and he was trying to choke me out.

I started to pass out, and whenever I did, I stopped struggling, I stopped trying to fight him. And he loosened his grip on me, and that's whenever I grabbed my knife, and I stabbed him. Sterling stabbed Wyatt once in the shoulder with his hunting knife. What else was I supposed to do, just let him do it?

Then he stabbed him five more times in the groin. He said, "Why'd you do that?" And I said, "Because you were trying to rape me," and that's whenever he said he was sorry. And I told him it was too late for that now. Wyatt slumped forward in the car.

And then I just wanted to go home. I didn't know what else to do, so I just pulled him out of the car, and I left. I went back home. With that a bit of time, to go for help. I don't know.

“The only thing I knew to do was just to get away, that's all.”

Sterling took Wyatt's car and drove home to his mother, Judy Barb. I lost it. When his toilet needed me the most, I lost it. She asked me what happened. I said, "Mom, I just got tried to rape me," and I stabbed him.

Did you tell him to call the police? Did you want him to call the police? No, I wanted to get an attorney, which is a very difficult thing to do when you don't know anybody in the middle of the night. But Judy told Sterling to take Wyatt's car back to the truck stop, and Sterling went on

the run. Meanwhile, Doug Wyatt was bleeding to death on the side of a road. He was on a Sunday. Pat Wyatt, his wife of 21 years, did not know where he was. He was missing life for three days.

And during that time, I always had hope that he was still alive until I got a call

He had a shirt on, but I thought it was as old. Sure, a few roads got a tip and tracked down Sterling Barbour when the deputies found him. Sterling confessed and told them where to find Wyatt's body. Above here, we found Mr. Wyatt's body, laying right in here, laying on his back. The sheriff's still not buying Sterling Barbour's story that he killed Wyatt in self-defense.

I don't believe it. You don't believe any of it? No. I don't believe any of it. Why not?

“Why would he stab him so many times if all he was trying to do was get away from him?”

If he had a gut out of that car, when he got loose from Wyatt, come to us. They wouldn't have been nothing done.

But because Sterling never called the police an in fact took Wyatt's car and ran, he was charged

with armed robbery and murder. A Franklin County teenager, please, not guilty to murder charges. Do you think when he did after the fact was wrong? How can anybody say I would have done this or I would have done that, you got no idea. What happens when you face evil?

Is Sterling Barbour a murderer? Yes. You don't even hesitate. Not even for a minute. There's no doubt in your mind.

No doubt, my man. He's a murderer. And according to one witness who saw Sterling Barbour that night, he didn't act anything at all like a scared boy who had just fought off a sexual attack. He came in and it was four o'clock in the morning, set an on the N-bar stew, the order to

rip a steak, order a French fries, double order of ice cream and a coke with refail. Marion Pritchett says she knew Sterling from working with him at the echo diner. Around that disorder, he paid me with a $20 bill, he had blood on him, I said why is this money so bloody? He said, I killed a deer and dressed it and I always knew blood all over me when I dressed

a deer. Okay, I didn't have a problem with it.

Never in a million years would I have thought that he had even been in a fight, much less

had murdered anybody. He was too calm, way too calm. Was there blood on your body? No, sir. There wasn't any blood on my body.

“You didn't tell her that the blood was from a deer?”

No, sir. That never happened. No, sir. I don't understand why she said that. Sterling says he never trusted the law.

He's had several run-ins with shower of roach before for shooting a kid with a BB gun for beating up his older brother and for running away from home. But Sterling Barber had never been charged with a violent crime before. And his friends do not think he's capable of committing one. Hey, such a good person.

He really is. Hey, Tauks. Lock a dynamite. Nice all around these real good guy.

Just always been a real good friend to me and as far as I know where it might is, I'm

looking. Good person.

“Sterling was a stand out baseball player.”

And the boy's in play ball with Sterling will tell you he was awesome. Sterling is one of my star players. Just an excellent kid. His coach Scotty Aconson says he never saw a violent side to Sterling. That's can't see it.

I can't see what he's already been through. Sterling was too good. In my eyes, he was just too good. I wish we could go back. Life stopped dead, that night.

Life stopped for the Wyatt family as well. Flashes in my mind time every time I thought he had to endure how much he suffered. The pain that he went through. The Wyatt's had two children. They were son, Braxton.

He was brutally murdered by someone with no thought for life, no thought for pain, suffering. Lee is their daughter. He was a loving dad, you know, he would do anything for anybody. And he was just a good dad. He loved people a lot in his show.

Wyatt made a living as a hairdresser and he used car salesman. He was my beautician. He was my friend. He was just fantastic. Never been a better person than my opinion.

He had lots of customers. They just loved him because he'd go to their house and pick him up and do their hair at home. If they needed it, he'd even fold her laundry when he picked him up sometimes. Wyatt was a deacon in his church.

But there was another song to Doug Wyatt. Was he a predator? No, definitely. We happened to mean when I was 13 years old. This is what we drove in at.

Doug Wyatt's wife. People are saying that your husband was a child master. You know that. Yes, I know that.

“When we come back, the secret life of Doug Wyatt.”

Peace out if you ever tell him about it, back there. OK. We're on the right side. We're on the right side. We're on the right side. The biggest advantage of Shopify is that we're going to need a technical advantage. We can all go back to the front end and the front end. And so we're going to go to the online shop.

We're going to buy a shopping trip, then we're going to buy the platform, the own way. It's just the basic thing. Our whole business is going to buy a shopping trip. Now, let's start a shopping trip. [MUSIC PLAYING]

This jar is good, VV-8000,000, real good jar. It's a pretty good deal. $5,500 for this car. It's new tires. That is, if you don't mind, it's history. They're practically new.

It belonged to Gerald Douglas Wyatt. He was stabbed to death in it by Sterling Barber. I had a little bit of blood on the north side, and I don't even see it. Doug Sieger's Wyatt's old friend in the used car business doesn't think it's a tough sell.

Do you feel a little funny selling this car? Not really. I don't think he actually died in the car anymore.

“I think he died in the ditch up there later.”

That make you feel better? Well, yeah. It runs clean. No sign of trouble. A lot of folks say the same thing about Doug Wyatt.

When you first walk out in Haiti, maybe it was a nice guy. He looked pretty good, too, on the outside. But any young boy, He could come in contact with. He was going to try something with him. He was a child molester, and he saw Sterling as his next victim.

I think God, Sterling Barber done what he did.

These men had never met Sterling Barber, but they had met Doug Wyatt when they were young boys.

When they heard Barber's story that he stabbed Wyatt because Wyatt was trying to rape him, they believed him instantly. I knew it happened the way he said it did. You knew it. You didn't doubt it for a minute, no.

And the reason?

“Because I knew Gerald Wyatt and the kind of man he was.”

John Davis was a 12-year-old boy playing basketball. When he says Wyatt lured him into his car by pretending to be an old family friend. He said that he had to go to the bathroom. In what, I don't know, 15 yards away from the vehicle and made a remark, something to the effect that it was hard to use a bathroom with a heart on.

Davis ran home, shaken, but unhurt. Science thing happened with my. James Watkins was 13 years old when Wyatt asked him for help hauling trash. But before they got to the dumpster Wyatt once again pulled down a dirt road to relieve himself.

When he got back in, as he still had his pants down, playing with his stuff. And he reached out and started on zipping my plants, whatever. And I just opened the door and got out and run. Well, it happened to me when I was 13 years old. Melvin Hooper says Wyatt tried to molest him almost 30 years ago.

Wyatt was just 17 and to this day, Cooper is haunted by the experience.

Tell him, well, but done one, I always wish to God out of the.

It stabbed him, shot him anything, anything like that. Wyatt lived in this white house here. Was he a good neighbor? Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.

Nobody ever pressed charges against Wyatt until Joe and Cindy Duncan noticed something strange. Between their 12-year-old boy and Wyatt. When I asked him what was going on between him and Wyatt. He just turned around and looked at me and said, "Dad, he's molesting me." Sometimes it happened in the woods on the way home from school.

Sometimes it happened when Joe sent his son next door to get a haircut from Doug Wyatt. Let go. I fell in my child. It's something that I don't think I'll ever be able to to make good again for my son.

And when he finally told you what your friend, what your neighbor had been doing, what did you do?

Duncan burst into his neighbor's house and to this day swears, he would have killed Wyatt,

if Wyatt had been home. Pat Wyatt said her husband was out, but later that night the Wyatt's came over here to talk to Joe and Cindy Duncan, who secretly recorded their conversation. Eventually, the Duncan's calm down. We didn't want to prosecute our friend. We didn't want to put him away. We thought this guy's sick. He needs help. They accepted a plea bargain where Wyatt would serve 20 years probation, get counseling, and get out of town. But incredibly, just one week

before his sentencing. This is what we drove in at. It's pretty secluded. Nobody's around.

“Ryan James says Wyatt tried to molest him here. How many other people has he brought?”

This is the same location and not has to see it on. Because you get down here, what's down here? Who's here to help people? And about eight months later, Wyatt was charged again. This time for aggravated Sodomate. This time, police say he used a gun. While he was waiting for trial in that case, Doug Wyatt met Sterling Barber. After he was killed, his wife Pat was left to cope with her husband's death and all the

questions about his life. Was your husband a child master? No. You're sure of that.

“Your answer for what I believe. That's all I'm asking. He wasn't a man that would hurt someone.”

You know, he would not force himself on someone. I think a lot of people would ask what does it take for this lady you for his wife to believe it? You know, I'm not saying that he didn't have problems. You know, I'm very aware that he did have some problems in his life. But I don't believe that he was a child molester. Pat Wyatt has got to be in deep denial. To believe that none of these acts are true. He's gone and why keep focusing on his past.

The focus is supposed to be a murder. He took a wife and he should have to pay for taking that wife.

“Next, Sterling Barber's murder case goes to trial. But will the jury hear the whole truth?”

It's almost as if Gerald reaches from the grave to Maniculate. I told the truth and so I figured everybody would know the truth but it didn't happen like that. I learned how things really worked. And now Sterling Barber is praying this community will show him mercy or killing Gerald Douglas Wyatt. He says it was self-defense. The authorities say it's murder. Despite Wyatt's extensive criminal record. It's almost as if Gerald reaches from the grave to Maniculate.

June Temple first knew Doug Wyatt as a deacon of the church. There were towns when I thought there was some

Dr. Jacqueline Mr. Had there. But then she came to know Doug Wyatt as a predator. He knew that I need not a sexual predator but rather the kind that praise on elderly women like her friend Sally Fanny Daniel. He provided her without a haul and he provided her with pills. And as a result, what did she give him? Anything he wanted? For house? Her house? Money? Money? She didn't know that she'd signed over her house. She had no idea. When he got caught, a judge ordered him to give everything back and June Temple

saw it all. To be perfectly honest, I quit the church because I could not stomach the thoughts

of taking communion from his surfing. What's amazing about Gerald Douglas Wyatt's life is that many

I knew that he had things bottled up inside that he didn't talk about. But as long as it didn't

“affect my life, I never saw him hurt anyone. He was a believable character to those that he chose”

to be believable too. And Wyatt was able to beat the system, say the sheriff, who had runns with him. The justice system is a long way from perfect. He should have been off the streets a long time ago. And we went to some, we lose some. We lost in this case, and there's probably little kids paying the price for him. Judge William Grant handled two of the criminal cases against Doug Wyatt. After all that, he presided over Sterling Barbers' trial for killing Doug Wyatt. But he did not

give Sterling a lot of breaks. At Sterling's trial, Judge Grant kept out most of the evidence of Wyatt's criminal history. Of all those men whose stories are so similar to Sterling's,

only two were allowed to testify and only very briefly. Here's what Judge Grant said in court.

To me, all these men showed is that it's possible to fight off a sex deviant and not kill him. Judge Grant refused our request for an interview. The deliberations began again this morning. They presented us with evidence, and you know, we deliberate, and they wanted an answer. He knows real fast pace for that type of case, I thought. After a two-day trial, these jurors found Sterling Barber guilty on all counts, including murder.

Barber was found guilty on five counts. I don't believe I could have ever, or after human being today. It didn't take much to stop and you know, get your sanity back at

heaven. What hurt Sterling in the jurors' minds was that after Sterling Wyatt, he ran away

and ate a steak dinner. If you go out to eat after you've done a crime like that, it just doesn't seem to save a little. But then we told the jurors about the evidence they weren't allowed to hear. Would you like to have heard from men who would tell the exact same story with that

“of influenced your decision at all? Yes, I think we should have. I don't believe any of us can”

sit here and say what we would have done if we would have heard that evidence. But I feel like we should have. That was what the whole case was about, you know. He faces a minimum of 26 years. After Sterling was convicted, Judge Grant through the book at him. Sterling Barber, at 17 years old, got life in prisons, plus 40 years. How can you do this? How can you protect a child molester and send this child to prison for life? And 40 years. After the trial, Sterling's mother

Judy Barber became his best advocate. They got their conviction before appealing. And before we left that day, I put my hand on his arm and I said son, we're appealing this. No, you're coming home. Although she suffers from arthritis, she and her boyfriend, Darrell have worked harder than any lawyer or investigator to prepare Sterling's appeal. The laws depend a lot on who you are. I was nobody. There's some records we need to check. My mom's been great. She's worked

almost every day. She doesn't even like to take breaks. This is the case. She just kept going and kept going, writing letters, writing people going to court houses, writing me letters. She just stays going 24/7. I will not leave one stone in turn till my son's home. Judy found a lot of information. At most importantly, she found a new lawyer to represent her son during the appeal.

“Ed Tolly is her savior. I think he will be a good if we do our job. He is the first strong man”

to stand up and fight for this child. He did not get in my judgment, sufficiently fair trial, and the jury rendered their verdict within accurate and incomplete information. Ed Tolly is taking Sterling's appeal very personally. A lawyer's worst nightmare if they're worth a damn is to represent somebody that's innocent. It's the kind of burden that upsets your stomach, that causes you to lose sleep, that makes you cry when the verdict comes out, whether you win

or lose. Is that the way you feel about this case? Absolutely. As Sterling waits, this or G.L. has brought his family closer together. Today, his mother and sister Lin have come to tell him that his aunt and his grandfather have died. Stirling can't go to the funeral. But he has some reason for hope. That's it, come on. On and on, there are about 2013. We are at Farad's meeting here. The biggest advantage

all go back to the front end and the front end of the meeting. And as soon as we go to the

“meeting, the online shop. If you're looking for Farad, then you're going to get the platform”

that's actually Farad. You're just starting the round. Our whole story is over. Now let's go to the shop at ShopbyFive.com. On Reddit, True Crime doesn't come from journalists. It comes from the victims, the witnesses, and sometimes the suspects themselves. Every Tuesday on Crimes of Reddit, we read these posts out loud. I'm Sabrina Dianna Roga, and I'm Alexis Lincletter.

One of us brings the story, the other goes in blind, reacting in real time, just like you. New episodes dropped every Tuesday. Listen to and follow Crimes of Reddit, available now wherever you get your podcasts. When I first got there and I seen it, it was the most violent crime that I have ever observed. The body was laying in the air. Jimmy LaCroy is the sheriff's deputy who investigated the killing of Doug Wyatt. You have a white male that's laying

on his back, and his pants pulled down to his knees. The body was dragged from the collar, and then for Dianna. Despite his first impression, when LaCroy learned about Wyatt's criminal history, he began to understand why Sterling Barber stabbed him. I do believe that why it did come

on to Barber. But there's one thing that's always troubled LaCroy about Sterling story.

“How many times do you have to stab him in? To feel like he's done enough damage.”

Barber stabbed Wyatt six times and was convicted of murder. I would hope that I wouldn't have to stay up some more than one time to get out of any situation. You're in the, you know, it's dark. You're in the middle of nowhere. And the guy's on top of you. Would you know when to stop? But you know where the line was between self-defense and murder. Truthfully, thousands of that situation, I don't know if I'd be thinking

about where the last about it, because my main objective was to be get out of the car. But I think Sterling had that opportunity to get out of the car. So why did Sterling react so violently that night? Why didn't he just stab Wyatt once to stop

“the attack and run for help? Sterling says he still doesn't know, but we've been talking to him”

for about a year and a half and just recently he started talking about another incident on another night when he was just six years old in a foster home where authorities had placed him after his mother hit him. Well, I was asleep one night and the guy came in on me while I was asleep. And I, and he lasted enough. Did you fight him off? Not cut. She didn't. One nothing but about two and a half foot tall, three foot tall. This is a big old dude. Sterling says he was

satamized. He doesn't like to talk about it. And there was never a police report filed. Does that attack on you earlier in your life? Have anything to do with the way you behaved in that car that night? I don't believe so. No. See, how could it not? That's not it. I didn't have time to think, well, so this happened to me when I was six and this is fixing to happen to me now. What am I going to do? There was that. There wasn't that much time to even think

that. There was no time. It just happened. That quit. It's something Sterling's first lawyer

might have wanted to know, but Sterling never told him. The jurors and Sterling's first trial

never heard about his earlier experience. And they never heard that Gerald Wyatt was a convicted child molester with another charge pending. The reason? Well, it's hard to believe, but Georgia state law did not consider child molestation to be an act of violence that would justify killing himself defense. Sterling is hoping his appeal to the Georgia Supreme Court will overturn that law and give him another chance to prove he stabbed Wyatt because he had to. Is it just this

descent and Sterling barber to life and prison? I don't know. That's the question I have from Australia. I don't know. Next, the Georgia Supreme Court answers that question. Will Sterling barber get another chance? Our little fellow is a tech about trauma molester, convicted channelizer. Judy barber has been singing the same song since 1995. Telling anyone who will listen that when her son killed Gerald Douglas Wyatt, it wasn't murder. It was self-defense

his driver's license and say, "Son, drive me home." And her dream just might come true.

The Georgia Supreme Court has overturned Sterling barber's conviction and he'll get a new trial. Oh, so happy here. Sorry to scrap. Pray for a long time. He's coming home. But in fact, he's just coming closer to home. He's being transferred to a jail near his mother where he'll wait for a new court date. I gave the credit to Lord, but my mom is writing behind him. In a landmark decision, the court ruled child molestation is an act of violence that could justify

killing and self-defense to prove Wyatt was a child molester. His entire criminal history

“can be introduced in court in a new trial. I think if a jury has the right to make an informed”

decision, Sterling's coming home. As you sit here today, it's a brand new case. It's a brand new day. It's just like it was the day you got arrested. Ed Talley is the lawyer who argued the appeal for Sterling. I don't intend to lose this case, but you and I have to be realistic enough to know that it could go south. Talley knows that even if he can present all of Wyatt's previous

victims and their stories that are so strikingly similar to Sterling's, there is still one huge

problem how to explain Sterling's behavior after the killing. Twelfth people listen to the story. And they decided that Sterling was guilty. Doug Wyatt's widow Pat is horrified by the news

“that Sterling's conviction has been overturned. How can the system turn around and tight this away?”

The Wyatt's decide to write a letter to the judge. Someone needs to hear how we feel. This letter is to express our feelings. People are going to believe that they want to believe. I know because I knew him. I'll live with him. That was my dad. The system. We feel like his failed us. Judy Barber feels the system failed her too. I love you. Sterling may have won this round, but the Barbers have a long way to go. Today, we are baking as many homemade goodies as

we can so that we can go sell and raise money for Sterling's defense. Good morning, needs some homemade goodies. Man, would you be interested in some homemade goodies? Despite all the baked sales, Sterling's family cannot post the $100,000 bond. So Sterling has to stay in jail. He celebrates his 19th birthday behind a plexiglass barrier. How are you doing? Hey, Mom. I love you. Love you, too. Yeah. Happy Barber. His family tries to make the best of it. Boy, well, here's your cake.

Just try and taste. You don't cry too much because I don't want him to eat pressed. But it's been two years. Mom tries to stay strong in front of him. She didn't have to do that. I know how sad she is and how much it hurts her. Whoa, dude. Boy, y'all looking good, man. Sterling's friends come to visit too. Hi. It's been a long time. I've bought that.

“I'm crazy. I think. Dude. Boy, I'm wishing, man. I got to see my best friend for the first time”

in two years and that's very special to me. Y'all read? Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you. My 19th birthday is the best birthday I've had in my whole life because my life was taken from me and I got a chance at life again. Where will Sterling Barber be in a year? The answer may surprise you. Next. We're on the right track. We're on the right track. The biggest advantage of Shopify is that we're going to need a technical advantage. We can all go back to the front end and the front end of the track. And as soon as they go to the online shop, we're going to buy a new one.

We're going to buy a new one, then we're going to buy the platform, the own real one. They're just the main thing. And our great business is going to be on the right track. We're going to buy a new one. Here it is, one or two. It's all gone around nine. It's been more than a year and a half since Sterling Barber won a new trial for killing Doug Wyatt.

But he's still waiting. A trial date hasn't even been scheduled.

“I just sit here just like the grass does. It's slowly done. It's slowly weathering away.”

He's now been locked up for a total of three years and three months. I'm in no way as well. There ain't nothing going on right now. I'm just out, alone. In that time, he's grown four inches and gained 40 pounds. Look at the difference that he was such a young and then. He's grown up in jail. He celebrated three birthdays. Happy birthday, happy birthday. And four Christmas is.

Very Christmas. I guess I don't got another inch on. Sterling is now 20 years old. Everybody seems shorter. But he seems much older. Says his mother, Judy. He's about 50 years old now. Sterling and old person in a young person.

But there's no peace in prison. You can't make yourself. They always had to put up a friend.

Act a certain way. You can't be nice to people. When you're nice, there's always so way to there. It's going to mistake your kindness for waitins. Something's got to happen. Get him out of there or go to trial. Do something.

“Why is Sterling Barber still in jail some 500 days after being sent back to that county?”

Well, the short answer is that the wheels of justice turn slowly as we all know. But the practical answer is because, you know, at this point, we're really on our fourth

prosecutor and our third judge. And every time we get a new judiciary in the case or a new

prosecutor in the case, essentially the process starts all over again. Stirling's lawyer Ed Tully has had a tough time finding an impartial judge and prosecutor in this small Georgia county. I think for the sake of justice, the case is better tried a new in another county that's larger, whether it's not been so much publicity and conversation about the case. But Tully, who is not being paid, feels he's partly to blame for all the delays in this case.

“My schedule is demanding. I'm doing this pro bono. I'm working this case as I can and when I can”

with what I can and it has slowed it down. While the lawyers do what they can, Sterling does what he can to make the most of his life here. Right here is my little cubby home. I got the top bunk so I'm doing my reading and writing. Got my store set. Got all my months of us. Got doughnuts and skittles and honeybines, popcorn. I'll come from some home. Sometimes I just come and sit. Just look, thank, dream.

Sometimes if you look hard enough, it seems like there's not even a fence here. Pat Wyatt is doing what she can to keep her husband's memory and his case alive. It's very hard. It's time does buy and nothing is done. To me, sometimes it's things that no one cares. Even with all the terrible things people say about him, she still believes her husband was killed for no reason. Murder in cold blood by Sterling Barber. He took a laugh and now he should have to pay

for. He should have to answer for his action. What will happen, Sterling? Sterling comes home. You believe that? Yes, sir. If I come back and talk to you in 10 years. In 10 years, he will be a college graduate. He'll be married to a beautiful lady and have beautiful children. This Barber that is a very happy ending to what so far has been a very scary story. Yes, sir. And he deserves it. I don't want anybody to feel sorry for me or anything like that.

I just want people to understand that I didn't do this. I don't mean this or cold blood. I did this because I didn't have any other choice. I just did what Nstank told me to do. It just happened. There's gonna be a day this white known to come. To avoid a possible life sentence, Barber pleaded guilty to voluntary manslaughter. He was sentenced to five years in prison and 12 years on probation. He was released from prison in 2000.
