to detectives. she was emotionally and physically distraught and kept asking about her husband. jessie still hadn t been told if he was dead or alive. well, just sit there and relax. and i want my mommy and i want my kids. finally the detective came back and broke the news about vince. he was pronounced dead at the scene. i m really sorry for your loss. the tragic news of vince s murder spread fast throughout the base and family members. janet, vince s surrogate mother got a call from jessie s mom. and she said, janet, there s been an accident. vince has been shot. and i was devastated.
confession that she made implicating our client should be set aside because the law enforcement agency for the military police should have followed the same rules that the earlier police department in christian county had followed during that day. jessie goslyn s statement was thrown out. the news hit vince s family hard. hearing the news that vince was killed was horrible. but what the justice system did was unfair. when they threw that out of court i was devastated all over again. and we thought she was going to walk away. we thought they were going to get away with it. but prosecutor prior wasn t going down without a fight. she filed a motion with the court of appeals. jessie and jared were out about relatively free. how did you feel about jessie and jared being out on house arrest with just ankle
shot. you say he was shot in the head and the face? correct. was this personal? it s personal to me because that person that shot him nine times wanted him dead. while detective stokes worked the crime scene about a quarter mile down the road deputies were talking to jessie. she was hysterical, crying sometimes where you couldn t understand what she was saying. there s jessie an her knees collapsed on the side of the road. this is wife who clearly had been through a traumatic situation. she watched her husband get shot multiple times, yes. her stomach it seems couldn t take the horror she just witnessed. i m going to be sick. by now lynne prior, christian

bracelets? i was livid. i argued to the best of my ability why someone who was charged with such a heinous murder should be out on an ankle monitor, and none of the arguments that i made were convincing to the judge. then everyone waited and waited. four long years went by before the appeals court finally reached a decision and sided with the prosecution. what s that moment like when you get word it s been overturned and the statement will be allowed? i was very much relieved. prior considered her options and concluded of the two jared deserved the harshest punishment. jared long was the one who pulled the trigger nine times. jared long was the one who took the life of vincent goslyn, so we wanted to make sure he received the maximum punishment he could for this crime. to do that the prosecutor needed not only jessie s videotaped statement, she needed
