In the months before Mike Williams went missing, Mike's wife took out a million-dollar life insurance policy on her husband. And making thing even more suspicious was the man who helped her sign the papers.

    I can't wait for the police to find his body so the alligators can sue for defamation of character

    His mother is his hero she never gave up fighting for her son.
  • For those who don't already know, or have not read through all the comments.... In October 2017, Mike's remains were discovered at the closed end of Gardner Road in northern Leon County, five miles from where he grew up; they were identified as his by DNA match with his mother. In May 2018, Denise Williams was arrested on charges of first-degree murder and conspiracy to commit first-degree murder. In December 2018 she went to trial, and was found guilty on all counts, and in February 2019, she was sentenced to life in prison for the murder, 30 years for the conspiracy to commit first degree murder. In January 2020, she appealed her conviction and life sentence. In November 2020, the murder conviction was overturned, but the conspiracy to commit murder conviction was upheld including the 30 year sentence that accompanied it. She is currently rotting in prison... good riddance! ETA: Forgot to mention that Mike's mum Cheryl lived to see the trial, the conviction, the appeal and the confirmation that Denise Williams was guilty of conspiracy to commit murder. Cheryl was last interviewed on November 2022 by the Tallahassee Democrat where she lives in a retirement home. She might have looked like a frail old lady but she is clearly a strong willed and determined woman. God bless you Cheryl for standing up for justice for your son when no-one else would.

    His mother is precious. I can’t imagine how devastated she must have been when she found out her son was missing. Bless her soul and bless his soul too.
  • @Email-mu1mv
    To see an old woman weeping for her missing son to return is so so disturbing. It made me cry and depressed. Oh God bless the world.
  • @faithyoung5879
    So, she killed her husband, who was a loving husband, for insurance money, and for a man who ended up abusing and shooting her. Sounds like karma got to her.

    human is scary. she is like an angel, her smile is so sweet.
  • This is the one true crime story that truly shattered me. The image of him wet and freezing in the pond and clinging to the reeds in the pond and begging his best friend (who is cheating with his wife ugh) for help when he also realized that his best friend was shooting at him just broke me. Thank the stars those two are still in prison and that Mikes body and their entire grotesque plot was uncovered.

    He wasn't killed by alligators but by 2 snakes!

    Update : Body was found , Wife and “Best Friend” are in prison. Daughter got all the money and isn’t allowed to use it to help mother in any way
  • @gladisarthi8038
    Mike seems to be a good person.. I felt sad for him... huge respect and immense love for his mother for fighting till the end...
  • @BE-ho6kz
    She broke my heart when she says she's still expecting her son to come back home. God, please give this lady peace.
  • Mikes mother was smarter than the cops! She knew alligators do not hunt in cold waters!
  • @marimullan4012
    I pray Mike's daughter is being raised by his family.

    I had a close friend who hit on my wife. When he died my wife was upset that I didn’t go to his funeral. 🤷🏻‍♂️ I said “ for what reason would I go “. To get arrested for public indecency when I piss on his grave. There’s a lot a man can forgive and forget. That’s NOT one of them.
