killer speaks out about james johnson case

Published Feb. 16, 2008

The man convicted of killing Brittany Willis more than three years ago talks about the controversy surrounding James Johnson in an exclusive interview with Fox 50's NC Wanted.

 

Why is WRAL giving this clown the time of day? Why not instead, give time to the family of the peoples whose lives he destroyed forever?  We should all be sick and tired of this type of sympathetic treatment of a cretin who needs to be put in a dark hole and never heard from again.

It was this same man's statement that James DID participate that got James in so much trouble. James should have told the police sooner, but he did tell. I don't know the whole story has been told, in that regard, for how did the dogs come to track a scent to James' house? Looks like time served would suffice, unless James was present at the abduction or murder.

I did not watch this because just seeing the commercial/promotion for it was enough to make me sick. I feel so sorry for the victims family because now they have to deal with this. How about doing a story on victims and what this world lost when they were taken away so violently? Let THOSE families speak! Instead, if their tv was turned on to this channel the family had to continuously see the face of their daughters killer. Who cares what the killer had to say? He didn't just wake up one morning and become the kind of person that rapes and murders a young girl. And yet he is upset at the thought of life without parole. Sounds like he is more upset about that than the life he took. My prayers go out to this family.

Maybe there should be a golo segment or once a week have a entire broadcast of what people on golo think should be reported. Let the normal everyday people make the news what they believe it should, news! We know the world is a bad place. Show some positive things. Things that people really want to see and hear about.

Feelings? I'm supposed to believe this animal has feelings? And so what if he does? Am I supposed to care HOW he feels about being sentenced to life without parole? Honestly, I could care less. Cry me a river. Actually I do care. I think he shouldn't have life. He obviously didn't care for the young lady or her family. Why should he expect ANY compassion from others?

WRAL, I agree with Ashen, Lolly and others who say you should be ashamed! Dreadfully ashamed! This family has gone through enough w/o you promoting this animal as a human being with feelings. How incredibly offensive you are to the family and friends of the victime!

rabid wolf; I've read that it costs more to execute a prisoner than it does to incarcerate one.

The cost mainly include the legal fees involved.

I agree with you though. I'm sure we can find a better way to spend our tax dollars. He's not worth it.

Their opinion on what is news and mine are beginning take separate paths.

I agree Ashen.

The point of them doing it is ratings. No matter how mad it makes you, I bet you keep watching it. Just to see what bs will come out of his mouth.

Actually no. I will not watch it. These are partial excerpts from the interview for which this is a promo. I will not watch it, and do not think that it belongs in the news. I also did not watch the confession about the Aruba girl. However that is actually news, where this is not.

The fact is the News should be News. Like I posted before, this interview, or promos for them are not. Why would WRAL lower themselves by calling this interview newsworthy? I will not watch the interview, and have seriously reconsidered having WRAL as my preferred medium for keeping up to date on the news. Their opinion on what is news and mine are beginning take separate paths.

64X has a good point. Airing this attracts an audience and generated hits in golo.

The point of them doing it is ratings. No matter how mad it makes you, I bet you keep watching it. Just to see what bs will come out of his mouth. Just like the video of the boy in Aruba that killed that girl. They keep playing the video of his "confession" just because they know people will watch it no matter what. The point is to make you outraged and keep you turning to there news program to see what other outrageous stuff will be broadcast.

This interview has been playing on WRAL all morning. I have to ask what in the world WRAL is doing? When did it become any interest of anyone what a convicted murderer and rapist thinks or feels about what he is going through. When did WRAL get the idea to continuously drag the family of the victim through this ordeal over and over again. I for one find this as much of a tragedy as what happened to Brittany Willis.



WRAL should be ashamed of themselves. This is neither news, nor newsworthy. This person should never be allowed to see the light of day, yet here he is all over the morning news talking about how he feels. WRAL has lost what little bit of mind they had left.
