Erica Fox Claiming Abuse

Erica Fox's murder trial is underway in Colbert County. Just as we had been told earlier, Fox is claiming abuse at the hands of the husband she helped kill. We didn't believe that story when we first heard it and we don't believe it now.

We believe Fox was disappointed that life wasn't a Regency ball every day; that she had to budget money; that she had to cook and clean. In short, life disappointed Fox and she sought the easy way out...by killing her husband Jason for the insurance money.

Let's hope the jury isn't easily swayed by her tears.

Some months ago we published censored versions of photos Fox sent to one of her many boyfriends. We did so after speaking with a family member of the victim and with the intent to prove that Fox's abuse story, should she really decide to use it, was totally bogus.

Our blog drew some stern criticism from another Shoals blogger. Perhaps now he sees why publishing the photos was in the best interest of justice?
