James Addy

All right, then.

My understanding, the jury has reached a verdict.

Do I have a foreperson?

Yes, sir.

When the jury walked in, like, five of the jury members looked at us.

Like, they glanced over, and I thought, okay.

I don't know if it was a good sign or not.

So back in April of 2018, you were in jail at that time, is that right?

Yes, ma'am.

What's a case without a jailhouse snitch?

But this trial had not one, but two inmates who took the stand to testify against James Addy.

Price Hendren and Richard Painter were two inmates in the Monroe County Jail at the time that James Addy was arrested and brought to detention there.

Did something happen while you were in the jail that concerned you?

Yes, it did.

They're all sitting together in a common room, watching television.

It's just kind of shooting the breeze.

And they ask Jim, well, what are you doing here?

A conversation about a bomb come up.

And it was brought to our attention that this bomb was $500,000.

And that sparked our attention enough to wonder what he had done.
