Original subtitles

[ Suspenseful music plays ]

- My sister took me by the face and said,

"Mommy's gone, mommy's gone, mommy's gone."

- She was not the kind of young woman

who would not call her mom, who would not show up home,

and that something terrible must have happened.

- Now we have three bodies.

- They all have to be related.

There's just too many bodies turning up.

- There was much more stabbing done than what was necessary.

- I'd never seen anything like that before.

- Do we have a serial killer on our hands?

♪

[ Suspenseful music plays ]

♪

- Middletown, New York,

is just outside the Catskill Mountains,

north of New York City,

that had its heyday in the '40s and '50s

and had really fallen on hard times.

Kind of seedy. Kind of sad.

Kind of worn out and a little grim.

- It was March 26, 1991,

at approximately 10:00 a.m.

I heard a call come in, indicating

that two young people were walking along

an old railroad bed,

and they located a dead body.

- The body was laying off the railroad-track bed

down an embankment.

She was a female,

and she was laying faceup.

- She was totally nude.

She was stabbed beyond recognition.

The body was found posed in a very unusual position.

- Her belly was cut open.

Her face was totally obliterated

by a what appeared to be some edged to sharp weapon.

I've never seen a face

literally destroyed by stab wounds before.

It looked like somebody went berserk,

just kept stabbing her and stabbing her

repeatedly and repeatedly.

They appeared to be a personal attack

because of the many stab wounds,

and maybe the killer was trying to hide her identity.

- As a forensic psychologist.

I would immediately

have concerns about sadism there.

Then, we also have her nude,

and, then, she's posed in a way that is very sexual.

It's a way that she's sort of played with postmortem,

that the person was enjoying this,

getting some kind of excitement from it.

♪

- The Middletown city police walked the area,

looking for anything that might be of assistance,

such as a murder weapon.

But they didn't find anything.

- Now the next thing was to find out who it is.

- Since she could not be recognized facially,

the only identifiable marking on her body

was a couple of tattoos on her arm.

- One of the detectives recognized a tattoo

from a previous disorderly conduct.

And he went back to headquarters,

and he looked it up, and sure enough,

he was able to match that particular tattoo on her arm

with Juliana Frank, age 29, from Middletown.

It was emotional, because I personally knew Juliana Frank,

and I didn't recognize her.

I knew her mom and dad, her brother.

She would hang out downtown.

And if I parked my car, she would come over

and say hello to my partner and I.

She was a good person.

And it's sad when you actually know the person and the family.

- That day, my phone rings.

That was my mother-in-law.

And all's I hear was,

"Julie's dead! The cops just told me Julie's dead!"

Don't remember anything after that.

It was very devastating.

[ Down-tempo music plays ]

Julie was my best friend.

Very pretty, and she did have such blue eyes.

Never saw her in a bad mood.

Julie in most parts was making you laugh.

Julie had two sons.

10-year-old and she had another younger boy, 4,

And she was about 4 months' pregnant,

but she was single.

[ Mid-tempo music plays ]

When I met Julie, I was in a pretty bad spot,

and Julie was always there for me.

I knew that she had my back at all times.

And I had her back at all times.

[ Suspenseful music plays ]

- I attended the autopsy.

That's when I found out that Juliana Frank was pregnant.

The body of the little baby was still enveloped in the belly,

although the belly was cut wide-open.

To see that really, really hurt me very much.

They determined that Julie

was stabbed 47 times throughout her body,

multiple organs were in fact lacerated, punctured.

The forensic pathologist believed there might have been

a kitchen knife that caused the injuries.

And there was a diagonal cut in her belly, causing it to open.

- Because of the nature of the wound,

one has to wonder as to whether or not

the murderer knew that she was pregnant.

- At that point, I said,

"I believe we have a monster on our hands."

It was unconscionable to think

that somebody would be able to do that, even in a fit of rage.

- There was no physical evidence she was sexually assaulted.

- Because she was pregnant,

we definitely wanted to focus on the person

that was responsible for getting her pregnant.

And we were thinking initially

that maybe he didn't want the baby, she did.

- We went to the family

to determine who the father of the fetus might have been.

- I told Detective Bernstein before she was taken from us,

she got into an actual physical fight

with the guy that we thought was the father of her unborn child.

- So the next thing was to find him and talk to him.

- But the father apparently was in Mexico

during the time this murder took place,

so he was immediately ruled out.

♪

- We went out, and we talked to several people

where she would hang out,

who she would be with.

But we're not learning much at all.

- The coroner told us we could go and view Julie.

My husband asked to move the sheet away from her face.

Never saw my husband cry. He was crying.

I'm on the floor.

[ Down-tempo music plays ]

I could go to the ground right now whenever I think about it.

[ Dramatic music plays ]

♪

- The Middletown police, doing their due diligence,

located a woman who had been a friend of Juliana Frank.

- Angela, who was a 17-year-old female, was brought to the PD.

- She told the police that she was present

when somebody named Hector

actually stabbed Juliana Frank in an apartment in Middletown.

- We intentionally did not tell the newspaper media

how Julie was murdered,

so we thought the story that Angela gave us

could be credible.

Hector was brought into the police headquarters

to be questioned.

And I have to say,

I went at him the hardest I ever wanted anybody,

where he actually got on his knees

and he was begging for mercy from God

and saying, "I did not kill her."

- And I got a search warrant.

They went out and using ultraviolet light and luminol

to look for blood spatter.

There was no blood.

- We learned that he was with his girlfriend,

and we were able to verify his alibi.

I started believing him, that he was not involved.

- So I went out, and I brought Angela in,

sat her down, let her read her statement,

and I cut through the fat.

I said, "You were never there."

And she started crying, and she said, "Yes."

I said, "Angela, why did you do this?

- She came up with some story that,

"Well, that's what I thought you wanted me to say."

We thought, "Well, it's more like

she had something out for Hector

and figured this would be a way

to get him in some compromising position."

So it was a dead end for the police.

It was difficult, because you have limited resources

and you're out chasing a lead that is a false lead.

But they had no other leads at that point.

- We interviewed probably hundreds of people.

We were hoping somebody would come forward with something.

But we came up with nothing.

- The case goes cold for almost a year and a half.

[ Down-tempo music plays ]

- And July 10, 1992,

police received a call about another murder

in a dwelling on Bonnell Avenue.

- A friend of the woman that lives there

went to check on her

after not hearing from her through the night--

or in the morning.

Knocked on the door. Nobody answered.

[ Suspenseful music plays ]

And she walked in,

and that's when she discovered Laurette Huggins,

32 years of age,

stabbed to death within the living room of her apartment.

As soon as I walked in there,

she was laying on the living-room floor, faceup,

and you could visibly see

multiple stab wounds throughout her body.

- The police found her naked and posed,

with her legs spread open,

the same manner in which the body of Juliana Frank was found.

- Laurette Huggins was also stabbed in the face,

just like Juliana Frank.

[ Dramatic music plays ]

- In Orange County, New York,

you do not find two murders of that similar nature

in the same city within a year of each other

unless it's a single suspect.

- We all thought at the time

there's got to be a connection here.

Has to be a connection.

- He repeatedly bludgeons both of them

until he became too physically exhausted

to be able to beat them anymore.

- This was a drop-dead exclusive.

- We're live at the Orange County Jail.

- You never know what's going on

in the mind of a serial killer.

[ Suspenseful music plays ]

- On July 10, 1992,

Laurette Huggins was found murdered in her apartment

almost a year and a half after Julie Frank's murder.

- The same detective team responds

and immediately noticed they were gruesomely similar--

the extreme number of stab wounds,

the positioning of the bodies.

The police found her naked and posed

with her legs spread open,

the same manner in which the body of Juliana Frank was found.

There was no sign of forced entry,

so the police would assume

that it was somebody that was allowed in.

Might have been someone that she knew.

- The crime-scene unit

discovered blood spatter around the house.

So she was definitely killed in her home.

The apartment was in disarray, as though a struggle took place.

There were papers thrown about, pillows on the floor.

- There was no murder weapon recovered,

but Laurette Huggins is the victim of 40 or 50 stab wounds.

They determined that the body

was moved from the bedroom to the living room.

But the stabbing appeared to have occurred in both rooms.

- We really didn't know if he just kept stabbing her

after she was killed.

[ Suspenseful music plays ]

♪

- The amount of physicality involved

would suggest that it was very emotionally-driven.

♪

- We found out from the person who discovered her

that Laurette had three children all together--

two girls living here

and a son back in her country, Saint Vincent.

- My family was actually getting ready

to move back to Saint Vincent.

So that night, my sister and I

were actually at a friend's home, spending the night.

My mom stayed back to pack up the house

And that next day,

my friend's mom got a phone call,

and she lets out this...

crazy scream.

[ Dramatic music plays ]

And I remember my sister

[voice breaking] took me by the face and said...

"Mommy's gone.

Mommy's gone, mommy's gone, mommy's gone."

[ Down-tempo music plays ]

♪

I didn't fully understand.

♪

"What do you mean she's gone?"

After that, I was whisked away to go live with my dad.

I was 8.

My mother was born

in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines.

In the 1970s, she just wanted a better life.

And that's why she came to New York.

She met my father, got married.

When I was about 2 years old, they got divorced,

so she was a single mom of three.

My mother was independent, hardworking.

She worked for an insurance company.

She always seemed to make it work.

We never had a sense of lack in our life.

She had this loud laugh that was so infectious,

this great smile that you just knew--

It was like, "Gosh. You're an angel on Earth.

"You really are something special."

And I think she knew that, too,

and she never left anybody not feeling just good.

[ Dramatic music plays ]

- The crime scene unit discovered

that one of the moving boxes was actually an egg crate.

And it was date-stamped with the day before.

As a result of that, we knew she was alive the night before,

and now she's dead.

So within probably 15 hours, she was murdered.

- At Laurette Huggins' crime scene,

we also found a coat hanger,

and there was an insert made out of paper.

And on that was a thumbprint in blood.

That was certainly significant.

- The next morning,

Laurette Huggins' autopsy was conducted

by a forensic pathologist.

[ Suspenseful music plays ]

Just like Julie Frank,

there was no evidence of sexual assault.

And there appeared to be the same type of weapon.

- The difference was Laurette Huggins

was not cut down the torso.

♪

- Over the next couple of days,

we were trying to identify the killer through that fingerprint

on that hanger, on the insert.

Things back then weren't really computerized

the way they are today.

You had to come up with a suspect name

and then match the prints.

- We want to know who this is,

but we had nothing at that time to compare it to.

We requested any agency with anything similar,

please contact us.

We just had to wait.

[ Birds chirping ]

- On July 30,

a civilian walking his dogs in an abandoned area

reported a gruesome discovery of a woman.

- The body was found in

the neighboring town

of Goshen, New York.

- The state police sent out an investigative team,

finding the body of Adriane Hunter naked,

posed with her legs open,

the victim of multiple stab wounds

in a secluded area, off the beaten track,

same as Juliana Frank and Laurette Huggins.

- Now we have three bodies.

The M.O. was pretty much the same in all three cases.

They were all single women, dead body.

as a result of multiple stab wounds,

posed body, naked body.

Those are the three factors that were all very similar.

At that point. the question was imposed,

do we have a serial killer on our hands?

[ Suspenseful music plays ]

- The District Attorney's office and law enforcement

were greatly concerned

about three open murder cases with the same M.O.--

Juliana Frank, Laurette Huggins, and Adriane Hunter.

♪

- During the investigation,

the detective from the city of Poughkeepsie

came to our headquarters,

and he indicated two ladies

were missing from the Poughkeepsie, New York, area.

- They had received a call from a worried mother

whose daughter, Angelina Hopkins,

who was 23 years old,

and niece, Brenda Whiteside, age 20,

had disappeared and not come back

from an evening out, bar, on July 20, 1992.

- They were last seen at the Blue Note bar.

One of the sisters of the girls was also with them,

and she said that they met these guys from Middletown

and were invited back to the house.

The one sister said, "I don't know who these guys are.

I'm not going. You shouldn't either."

The two girls did not listen to the sister.

Sister came home.

Two girls went missing.

- Mrs. Hopkins told the police how highly unusual it would be,

not just for Angelina not to appear,

but for her cousin Brenda not to appear.

Angelina Hopkins was not the kind of young woman

who would not call her mom, who would not show up home,

and that something terrible must have happened.

The detective in the city of Poughkeepsie

was not content to say, "Let's just look in Poughkeepsie."

He took it upon himself to go to an adjoining county

and advise them of this situation.

As far as we could tell,

there was no real connection

between two women missing in Poughkeepsie

with three gruesome murders

in Orange County.

While the police are trying to run down leads,

the mother of Angelina Hopkins, one of the missing women,

was so tenacious

in trying to find out what happened to her daughter

that she engaged on an investigation of her own.

She took pictures of both these young women,

Brenda and Angelina, to the Blue Note bar

and showed them to anybody that she could, saying,

"Have you seen these women here before?"

And she had left her phone number with the bartender,

advising him that if he saw anyone back in the bar

who had left with her daughter and her niece

to call Mrs. Hopkins immediately.

[ Telephone rings ]

The bartender did call Angelina's mom, Mrs. Hopkins.

- He said the gentleman that the missing ladies left with

is across the street, sitting in a car right now.

- Mrs. Hopkins went down to the bar

and confronted the individual who that bartender identified.

The individual said that he had given a ride to the two women

and some male friends of his to Middletown,

and the last time that the individual saw the two women

was when he dropped them off

somewhere in the Middletown area.

- So she took the plate number down,

and she gave it to the state police.

- The police identified the license plate as being stolen,

and a state trooper initiated a traffic stop

and are able to identify the person using that car

as an individual by the name of Nathaniel White.

[ Suspenseful music plays ]

♪

Nathaniel White was driving a car with a stolen license plate,

and he was on parole.

So that immediately was a parole violation.

Since the Middletown area was a very small city

with only minor crime problems,

the police want to talk to Nathaniel White

as a suspect in this disappearance case,

as well as the open murder cases from Goshen and Middletown.

- As a result,

they called in a polygraphist with the state police,

who then conducted a polygraph,

talking to Nathaniel about all the five cases.

And Nathaniel adamantly denied being involved in any of them.

After a period of time, the polygraphist came to us

and told us he failed his polygraphs.

He's royally lying through his teeth.

Polygraphs are not admissible in a court of law,

but we knew that he was definitely involved,

so the investigators take over at that point.

We brought him into the interview room.

He agreed to talk to us without an attorney.

Nathaniel White was a very quiet-spoken,

relatively intelligent individual,

laid-back type of guy.

- Police began finding out about his background.

Nathaniel White had grown up in the Orange County area.

- He did grow up in a loving home.

He was able to graduate college.

He was enlisted in the Army.

He served about three years.

But soon after he left the Army,

he started to have some trouble with the law.

- He had a prior conviction for armed robbery,

had done a substantial amount of prison time,

had been released from prison

before the murder of Juliana Frank in 1991

and, then, shortly after his release

had attempted to lure a young woman into his car

and went back to prison on a parole violation for a year

and was recently released before the murders

of Laurette Huggins and Adriane Hunter.

And he recently was fired from a factory job

in the Middletown area.

He blamed the stolen plate on his girlfriend,

saying it's her car and her license plates

and he didn't know anything about the source of the plates.

Mr. White was asked by the police

about Hopkins and Whiteside,

and he stuck with the version

that he had given to Mrs. Hopkins,

that he gave them a ride to the Middletown area,

dropped them off,

and that was the last he saw of them.

When Nathaniel White was asked about Laurette Huggins,

he admitted he knew her.

- He told us how,

as they were neighbors a couple of years earlier,

they would say hi to each other in passing.

[ Suspenseful music plays ]

- When asked about Juliana Frank's murder,

he claimed that he was in prison at the time,

which police knew was untrue.

Nathaniel White came up with excuses,

but the inconsistencies of his story

did not provide the police with probable cause

to charge him with the murder of anyone.

We didn't have the murder weapons.

There was no DNA.

All we had was the fingerprint.

So they took his fingerprints.

But the state police

sent the fingerprint to the FBI laboratory

and were waiting for confirmation.

You can't imagine the volume of fingerprints that the FBI gets,

and the FBI could take months.

So police inferred to Mr. White

that they knew it was his fingerprint

and he might as well tell us the truth,

because the fingerprint was gonna sink him anyway.

- It's very common

when detectives are interviewing a suspect

that they give them a piece of information like that,

like having a fingerprint,

that may or may not be fully true,

in order to see how the person is going to react.

- At first, he denied that it would be his finger.

"Well, who else's fingerprint would it be?

Nobody else's fingerprint but yours."

- He knew we had his fingerprint.

The gig was over with.

I believe that that's what broke him.

- At which point, Mr. White then began to tell the truth.

- To the police,

Nathaniel White admitted to the three murders...

[ Dramatic music plays ]

...and he told us what happened.

♪

I say, "Okay. Let's start with Juliana Frank.

What did you do?"

- He told them

he was out driving around

in the early-morning hours

and saw her walking.

He then offered her a ride.

- They went to have some drinks together

and, then, he asked her for sex.

They had sex together.

And he started to explain to us for some reason,

he started feeling anger come over him.

[ Blade shings ]

- He had lured her from the vehicle

and beaten Juliana Frank to a point of unconsciousness,

had undressed her, left her on the railroad track.

But, then, he returns to his vehicle,

gets out a knife, goes back,

and begins to just stab her repeatedly.

- Mr. White claimed that he did not know

that Juliana Frank was pregnant,

which is inconsistent

with the manner in which her body was found,

because the other two women who were stabbed

did not have their bellies slit open.

- Next, he told us how he was on his way home

from a friend's house.

He encountered Laurette Huggins carrying boxes,

and he offered to help her,

And they went back to the apartment...

and he killed her.

He said he had sex with Laurette Huggins, too.

- And then he proceeded to tell us

what he did to Adriane Hunter.

- Nathaniel White admitted that he knew Adriane Hunter,

who he said was a friend of his girlfriend.

- There was no forensic evidence to support

that he had had sex.

- He was lying about the sex with all of the women.

The forensic pathologist--

in fact, she made the statement

that this killer's knife was his penis.

The act of stabbing was actually his act of sex,

in his own mind.

I asked him what happened to these two girls

that are missing from the city of Poughkeepsie.

- At this point, there was no indication

that those two young ladies were other than missing persons.

- He told us he was drinking with friends at the Blue Note bar

the night he met Angela Hopkins and Brenda Whiteside.

The two girls came to Middletown, stayed overnight,

and then Nathaniel was asked to take them back to Poughkeepsie.

And he said okay.

but instead of coming back to Poughkeepsie,

he took them to a very desolate, non-populated area.

- He described vividly

the method of murdering those two young ladies,

about 100 or 200 yards from the location

where Adriane Hunter's body was found in the village of Goshen.

- He told us he parked the car and said,

"Hey. I want to talk to you," one of the girls.

And the other one stayed in the car as requested.

- And he got this piece of metal from his car.

He beat one of the victims first out in the woods

after he said he had sex with her.

♪

- He goes back to the car

and gets the other young lady, tells the young lady

that her friend wants to speak to her in the woods.

Claims that she went back voluntarily.

She might have been dragged. We'll never know.

Brings her almost to the same location,

bludgeons her to death,

and repeatedly bludgeons both of them

until he later admits he stopped beating them

with this metal object

when he became too physically exhausted

to be able to beat them anymore.

Which corresponds to the overkill

of the three stabbing victims.

- At that point,

he gave us an eight-page confession to the five murders.

- During the course of the interview,

we learned from the village of Goshen PD

about a 14-year-old girl from their vicinity

and didn't know what happened to her or where she went.

Her name was Christine Klebbe.

The last person to see Christine Klebbe

was her uncle...

♪

...Nathaniel White.

- When asked about Christine Klebbe,

the missing 14-year-old,

Mr. White admitted

that she was the niece of his girlfriend.

[ Dramatic music plays ]

He knew her, knew her parents,

but didn't know anything about her disappearance.

- Nathaniel White was not willing

to admit to Christine

because she was

a close member of the family.

He sat by, had dinners with them,

played basketball with I believe her dad.

Most days of the week was at home

with her aunt, his girlfriend.

- Jill Garrison, the girlfriend of Nathaniel White,

was brought in by law enforcement

to try to ascertain if she knew anything

about Nathaniel's involvement in any of these murders.

She basically was in denial.

We confronted her and said, "Hey,

we believe that he killed your niece, Christine Klebbe."

And she said, "No. Not him. He wouldn't do that."

- I think Nathaniel White

was a master manipulator, a con artist.

I think he had manipulated everybody around him,

including his girlfriend.

♪

- We went back to interview Nathaniel,

and we finally said to him,

"You're denying that you killed Christine Klebbe,

but we already know you did.

You just admitted to and confessed to five murders.

One more makes no difference in New York State--

no difference at all."

I said, "You're partially related to this family.

It's your girlfriend's niece.

Don't you want to give closure to her brother

and his wife and the mother?"

And he put his head down, and he goes, "Alright.

I killed her."

And, then, he explained how he did it.

- After Nathaniel White was interviewed,

he was asked, would he take us

to show us where he dumped the bodies.

And he agreed.

He was handcuffed, shackled.

And he led police investigators

to the bodies of Angelina Hopkins

and Brenda Whiteside

in a field off of the town of Goshen.

- Next, he went down on Echo Lake,

where he killed Christine Klebbe.

- Nathaniel White did not bury any of the bodies.

As a result of the heat

stretching from July into August,

and, also, the animals that roam in that area,

they were just skeletonized.

They were just bones.

He detailed everything explicitly

as to what happened to these girls,

and it was all consistent and corroborated with the scene.

We knew we got the right guy.

[ Down-tempo music plays ]

[ Helicopter blades whirring ]

- We started hearing helicopters.

And a friend called and said these girls were found dead.

And Barry did inform us that Nathaniel White killed Julie

and that Julie was part of the other women's murders, as well.

Took me a while to actually let it sink in

that it was the same person.

- I remember Nathaniel White.

Years before she passed,

my mother had a friend

named Jill Garrison.

My mom and Jill's friendship blossomed

because of my friendship with her children.

And Nathaniel White was Jill's boyfriend.

I saw him occasionally.

One time, Jill was driving.

Nathaniel was in the passenger side.

And so I'm right behind him,

and I see him gazing out the window.

And he's looking at the side mirror,

and I'm looking at him.

And I make a funny face, and I'm like, "Ha ha!"

And he does nothing.

I will never forget that--

his just blank, dead stare at me from the front seat.

My mother passed a couple of months after that.

What are the chances [scoffs]

your mom's homegirl's boyfriend is a serial killer

and, like, she's murdered in that way?

♪

- There was a notice of a news conference sent out.

They had arrested somebody, charging them with six killings.

It's a big story.

The producer says

he's got something over at the jail.

He says he's trying to get an interview with the suspect,

because he wants to clear some things up.

This was a drop-dead exclusive.

We're live at the Orange County Jail in Goshen, New York.

- On Monday morning,

a news team from WNBC Television in New York City

enter the Orange County Jail

because Mr. White had agreed

to conduct a videotaped interview.

- So we're ready to do the interview.

They bring Nathaniel White in. He sits down.

He was calm, gentle.

And it was just...

jaw-dropping.

- He was trying to minimize his involvement--

you know, his conscious involvement, so to speak.

- We said, "Hey, you know,

did you see any movie or TV show or anything

that that might have set you off?"

And he thought. He goes, "Well, I had seen 'RoboCop.'

I killed like RoboCop."

- Nathaniel White was trying to lay the groundwork

for an insanity defense.

[ Suspenseful music plays ]

♪

- The interview could have been an attempt

to insert this possible defense

of insanity

by talking about having voices

and how movies made him do it.

I do not believe that Nathaniel White was insane.

I do believe that he knew that what he was doing was wrong.

- After looking at the video interview

that Mr. Young conducted,

I'm saying to myself,

"There's gonna be an insanity defense."

But we never received from the defense attorney

the notice that they're required to file.

- So, he actually recanted what his statements were

to the police and to Lou Young,

said he made a mistake.

He didn't mean it. He didn't kill them.

He felt like he was coerced.

We went to trial-- full trial.

♪

- Trying Nathaniel White as a serial killer

was a first for me and a first for Orange County

and hasn't occurred in the 33 years since Nathaniel White.

The trial lasted four weeks. We had 75 witnesses.

But the hardest part was seeing the families every day.

- During the trial,

it was my duty to be there

to let the jury know people loved Julie.

I heard the autopsies.

Every story of each one of the girls

was worse than the other.

- Mr. White testified on his own behalf.

He was very smooth,

was very cool, was very collected.

I could understand in listening to him testify

how smooth he could be

to be able to convince a woman to go somewhere with him.

Look at Ted Bundy, and you look at Nathaniel White.

If you met him in a social setting,

you'd probably have a conversation with him

and think, "What a nice young man."

You never know what's going on in the mind of a serial killer.

The jury deliberated for a total of five hours

before returning a verdict.

On each count, Nathaniel White was guilty

of the crime of murder in the second degree.

- And judge literally threw the book at Nathaniel White

by giving him 150 years to life

to make sure he never walks this Earth again and sees sunlight.

- Nathaniel White stole an amazing woman from this world--

a truly good person,

a wonderful mother, sister, friend to all.

I will never be the same because of it,

but I know her spirit, her presence

lives on through me and I'll be stronger from it.

And I think it's important to remember all six of these women,

who they were to their family and their friends.

And I pray that their spirits continue to live on

through their family and friends.
