Blogging the story of a Florida murder
An email and comment to my blog report the story of Taylor G. Wells, imprisoned for a 1993 home invasion robbery/murder in Cape Canaveral in which several young men were charged. One of the men, Wells, was sitting in a car outside where he believed, he said, he'd just been dropping one of the men off. Despite his lesser involvment, Wells got one of the harshest sentences -- life in prison. Florida writer Kay Day is writing a book, One Night for Life, and publishing it in a blog. A family friend, Beth Cioffoletti is blogging the Wells case. There are links to other Wells defense sites on both of these blogs. posted by liz at 10:30 AM
