Jury Trial: State of Ohio vs. William Inman II

In case you didn't know, I was juror number 181 in the trial of the State of Ohio vs. William Inman II. On Tuesday, we convicted Willie of 2 counts of aggravated murder, kidnapping, tampering with evidence, and abuse of a corpse.

Today, we just sentenced Willie to life in prison without the possibility of parole.
Thanks for all of your thoughts and prayers. We all did what we felt was best.




March 22, 2011, Summer Cook-Inman had just clocked out of her job at the Century National Bank in downtown Logan, Ohio.  Her estranged husband, William Inman II, father-in-law William Inman I, and mother-in-law, Sandra Inman, were all arrested days later.


Sandra confessed to Logan Police that the family had kidnapped, murdered, and dumped Summer's body in a church septic tank.


She was found a week later with a large zip tie around her neck, and three zip ties around her wrists.


We just finished the sentencing and final phase of William Inman II's trail.  


Willie could have faced the death penalty.  I'm morally against putting someone to death, but I would have been willing to do so.


The 10 Commandments say thou shall not murder.  There is a difference between killing and murder.  The taking of one's life for justice is not murder.
