Denise Williams, 48, was arrested Tuesday on first-degree murder charges, reports the Tallahassee Democrat. It was a dramatic turn in a cold case broken wide open by the discovery of Mike Williams’ body in December.

It turned out the 31-year-old hadn’t fallen from a boat while duck hunting on Lake Seminole in 2000 and been eaten by alligators, as was long speculated. He was instead murdered, his body dumped near a boat landing in Tallahassee, reports Fox News.

The announcement of its discovery came a day after Mike’s best friend, Brian Winchester, was sentenced to 20 years in prison for the armed kidnapping of Denise, whom he married in 2005.

Mike had been declared dead by “accidental drowning” at Denise’s request, per the Democrat. She collected more than $2 million from life insurance policies, including a $1 million policy sold to Mike by Winchester. Though Denise and Winchester would later marry, the pair divorced in 2015, and in 2016, Winchester kidnapped Denise at gunpoint.

Documents from his sentencing show he was fearful of what Denise might tell police about Mike’s disappearance. An indictment now says Denise conspired with Winchester to shoot and kill her husband, per WCTV. Says Winchester’s lawyer, “we don’t anticipate him being charged,” and “if he’s subpoenaed or granted immunity, he will cooperate and testify truthfully.”

Denise’s lawyer says she’ll fight the charges. “There’s been a drum beat against her for years, but she has nothing to do with Mike Williams’ death,” he says.

Ah yes. A FLORIDA LOVE STORY IN THREE ACTS

Florida woman has had enough of Florida man, conspires with other Florida man to kill him, blames alligators.

Marries husband's killer, divorces him a decade later (probably blames the alligators for that too).

Florida man kidnaps ex-wife at gunpoint a year later fearing she might tell the police the alligators are innocent.

It's true, truth is stranger than fiction, especially in FLA.
 
A Florida woman was found guilty Friday night for her role in the murder 18 years ago of her first husband.

After eight hours of deliberation, a Leon County jury convicted 48-year-old Denise Williams of all three charges against her. She faces life in prison for conspiracy to commit murder, first-degree murder and accessory after the fact for masterminding and concealing a wicked plot to free her from the marriage and collect nearly $2 million in life insurance money.

The guilty verdict brings closure to the nearly two-decade-long mystery of what happened to Mike Williams, a 31-year-old father and real estate appraiser when he went missing Dec. 16, 2000.

A Florida woman was sentenced to life without parole on Wednesday for her role the murder of her first husband by her lover 18 years ago, a death that police initially blamed on alligators.

The woman, Denise Williams, was convicted last month in state circuit court in Tallahassee of first-degree murder, conspiracy to commit first-degree murder and being an accessory after the fact of a first-degree murder. The accessory charge was later dropped under a state law that says a defendant can't be an accessory to a crime for which he or she has been convicted.
