one down two to go.
couldn't get the video to embed here but if you follow the link to the original article you'll find it no problem. (ps. the video is from inside the courtroom this morning, during the sentencing, im currently watching it for the first time, about 15 mins in and it seems to be about half way done; also i have a few words to say about it near the end of this post)
Nathaniel Brown sentenced to life in prison without parole for murder (video)
By: News-Herald staff Published: Monday, December 19, 2011
A Willoughby Hills man was sentenced today to life in prison without parole for the murder of William Andrew Fayne Putzbach.
Nathaniel Brown, 22, received the sentence in Lake County Common Pleas Court from Judge Richard L. Collins Jr.
Brown was convicted by a jury Nov. 21 on two counts of aggravated murder, six counts of murder, aggravated robbery, two counts of kidnapping, two counts of felonious assault and gross abuse of a corpse.
The body of the 21-year-old victim from Willowick was discovered stuffed in the trunk of his car April 17 at the Willoughby Hills Towers apartment complex.
His two co-defendants have not yet gone to trial.
article + video
my thoughts:
(please note: all transcribing (in italics) was done by me from listening to the video, in which of course the audio is not perfect, so it may not be 100% word-for-word but it's close)
--Making this following section small because I kind of get into an enraged rant, also I use the word "you" a lot as if im trying to talk to Nate Brown personally, that's not the case. it's just easier for me to write, and for you to read, if im not saying "Mr. Brown" every other sentence--

Regarding Nate Brown/Defense:
I can't stand the excuse of a "broken" home while growing up contributing to someone committing some type of vicious crime. I understand you didn't know your father until you were 18, however there are PLENTY of 21 year olds: male, female, white, black or god damn purple take your pick, who STILL do not know their father, yet have not involved themselves in shit like this. TBH I don't see how such a coward could have done shit in the army. If you REALLY didn't know what was goin down, you would have fucking done something to stop it. You say you knew Basinger (alleged ringleader) for only 6 months, also you claim that just like you, Shirer was shocked when Basinger started choking the victim. Fucking bullshit dude. if that was true you and Shirer, assuming you're not total pussies, would have done something to stop it. Basinger is notably smaller than both Brown and Shirer, just judging size and body strength alone, not even considering the fact that there was a hammer and other objects readily available to grab/use inside the car, Basinger could definitely have been stopped.

the father, during his statement, addresses Brown's grandmother (who minutes prior addressed the court and victim's family before Brown read his statement. to the family she basically says that they (Brown's family) obviously don't understand the exact pain and feelings the Fayne/Putzbach family has dealt with and that they're in their prayers)
the victim's father, in part of his statement, turns to Brown's grandmother and family and says this:
"To the grandmother, Mr. Brown's family, I'm Sorry....I don't dislike anybody I've (we've) met. I just don't know how to fight through feeling that, these feelings, of not having my son come home anymore."
I felt I should point out: what a class act. This was a horrific murder, 3 people on 1, inside the victim's own car. Pretty much the more details you hear the more disgusting the incident becomes. Maytee should take a page from Mr. Putzbach's book (well, either parent honestly), especially when it comes to courtroom etiquette.
all in all this was so senseless. it hits EXTREMELY close to home. Prayers for the Fayne/Putzbach family and all of William Andrew Fayne Putzbach's friends and other loved ones.

- The victim's parents each read impact statements, both gave me goosebumps.
- The mother's statement included a message to Brown from the victim's younger brother Kristopher. I just want to give this kid the biggest hug. I've seen a couple pictures of him in court with his mother (I would guess he's maybe 13? give or take, but you can tell he's not just a lil tyke being dragged to the courthouse day after day during the trial)
- I wish they didn't have to go through 2 more separate trials.
the victim's father, in part of his statement, turns to Brown's grandmother and family and says this:
