In a weeks time, an Auglaize County murder trial has wrapped up leaving the decision to Judge Mark O'Connor.

The trial for Brent Williams didn't end before the defendant took the stand.

He denied killing his estranged wife, Erin Mulcahy and says he was at his parents house during the time she died. He claims he last saw her when they had sex on July 2nd and proceeded to move out. And says the life insurance policy was taken out when he was eligible at work because he didn't want his father-in-law to continue paying health bills. During closing arguments the defense stood by the thought Mulcahy had a seizure from alcohol withdrawal.
