The witness and the officer: Two involved in Joyce Thomas case speak
About a month ago Phillip Dewoody pleaded guilty to murdering Joyce Thomas, just a few weeks after the first anniversary of her death. After lying about what happened for roughly six months, he finally confessed, and later was indicted. At the same time, he pleaded guilty to the abduction and sexual assault of another woman, and for these crimes heâs now serving three life sentences. Because his case is now closed, the investigative file has become public record.
