As Action 8 News has reported, Jeremy Williams was given four death sentences for killing a 5-year-old girl in 2021. According to multiple media reports, the girl’s mother, Kristy Siple, later pleaded guilty to human trafficking for selling her daughter to Williams for a sex act. “If there’s ever been somebody that’s deserving of the death penalty its Jeremy Williams,” Taylor said after the sentencing in 2024.
