Summary

Last week, I told you the story of a beautiful, blond, blue-eyed boy who didn’t live to see his second birthday thanks to the drunken rage of his mother’s boyfriend. I also told you the story of a mother who reportedly continues to make terrible decisions in regard to her children’s safety even after losing one of them in such a predictable, preventable way.

This week, you’ll hear my conversation with Berkeley County Deputy Solicitor Anne M. Williams, who prosecuted Justin Hillerby for the murder of Blaise Preston Spoerl and has never forgotten the little blond boy for whom she sought justice.

This is part two of the heartbreaking story of Blaise Spoerl.
