Michael Stanley Townsel Jr. |
One of three suspects charged in the death of Gary Lee
Willis of Boaz pleaded guilty to murder Monday before the case even went before
the grand jury. 28 year old Michael
Stanley Townsel Jr., of Fort Payne
admitted to shooting Willis then burning his body in a car in December 2013.
Circuit Court Judge Tim Jolley sentenced Townsel to life in prison with the
possibility of parole. Marshall County
District Attorney Steve Marshall said he doubts Townsel will ever be released
and said he will object every time parole comes up. Two other suspects in
Willis' death, Christopher Todd Cagle of Boaz and Delia May Downs of
Albertville, are still waiting for a grand jury to hear their cases.
