Case Story |

Cops: It Began As Abuse And Ended With Murder |
|
| |
In the early 1980's, Shawn Windsor met and married his first wife, Angela. Angela was only 15 at the time, and her family disapproved of the union. She says Shawn encouraged her to leave home, but the life she left for wasn't much fun. Because they had no money, she says, they slept by railroad tracks and occasionally stayed with friends. On one occasion they stayed with a friend of Shawn's who was a tattoo artist. Angela says that was the day that Shawn got the letters "S" and "A" tattooed on his arm, promising her they would be together forever. Eventually Shawn and Angela had two sons and one daughter. But Angela says it was not long before Shawn's abusive behavior began to surface. She says that at first, it would only happen when he was drinking; he'd yell at her, call her names, push her, and smack her. But in time, she says, the abuse got worse, and he began punching her.
Angela says says Windsor's abuses became worse and worse. She recalls the day he was in their back yard, attempting to fix the lawn mower, and asked her to help by holding the mower steady. As he leaned into the mower using a wrench to fix it, Angela says the weight of it became too much for her to hold it steady, and she fell backwards. She says Windsor's reaction was to take the wrench and cracked her on the knee with it. She says she couldn't walk for several days.
Eventually, Angela says, Windsor began abusing their two sons. In one instance, she says, after beating one child son so badly that he could hardly move, Windsor then made him sit cross-legged on the floor. When she tried to go in and interrupt the beating, she says, Windsor turned his anger on her, hitting her with a nylon dog leash and threatening to kill her if she ever tried to leave him. |

A New Woman Enters The Picture |
|
| |
In 1990, Angela's 15-year-old cousin Betty, was having problems at school. She knew that Angela lived in a better school district, and asked if she could move in with Angela and her family. She had no idea what was going on in her cousin's home. But cops say she would soon become a big part of it.
Angela agreed to let Betty move in, but that turned out to be a big mistake. Because shortly after Betty arrived, Angela says, her young counsin became romantically involved with Windsor. And a few months later, Betty became pregnant.
While Angela says she was hurt, she admits she was also relieved that Windsor's attention had shifted to someone else. In fact, she says, she saw this as her chance to escape from Windsor. He agreed to divorce her, and she moved out with her children.
Soon, Betty gave birth to a baby son she named Corey, and Windsor asked her to marry him. He took a new job working security at a grocery store, and persuaded the store manager to let the wedding take place right inside the grocery. He told the manager it would be a lot of free publicity for the store. But Angela, who attended the ceremony, says what he really was after was a free wedding.
Windsor and Betty tied the knot in the middle of the bread aisle. But their honeymoon wouldn't last long. According to Betty's family, Windsor was soon back to his old ways -- he began abusing Betty.
Family members say that when Windsor purchased a new car with manual transmission, Betty was apprehensive about driving it, because she could not drive a stick shift. Windsor promised to teach her. In July, 2003, as they drove around with Betty in the driver's seat, cops say Shawn became increasingly frustrated at her inability to operate the car. Police say he struck her in the face -- as their eight-year-old son watched from the back seat.
Betty decided to press charges, and Windsor was found guilty of a domestic-violence assault. A judge ordered him to stay at least 500 feet away from his family. When Betty filed for divorce several months later, Windsor refused to accept a summons mailed to his apartment, leaving the divorce in limbo. |

A Deadly Dinner Date |
|
| |
In December, 2003, Betty and her son Corey were staying with her mother. It was the Christmastime, and according to Betty's family she began to feel guilty that she hadn't allowed Corey to spend Christmas with his father.
Police say Windsor called Betty on December 28th, asking to see Corey again, and inviting Betty and Corey over for dinner. Over her family's protest, Betty reluctantly agreed.
But Louisville police say dinner wasn't what Windsor really had in mind. Once he got Betty and Corey inside his home, cops say, Windsor stabbed his son in the heart and then beat both Betty and Corey to death with a barbell. When police discovered their bodies, they also say they found a detailed written confession signed by Windsor and covered in blood. But Shawn Windsor had disappeared.
