Defendant takes murder guilty plea in 2012 Gonzales home invasion Home The Advocate mdash Baton Rouge Louisiana
GONZALES ā In one night, a tearful Craig Godbold testified Tuesday, a robbery aimed at stealing a safe thought to contain gold and collectible coins changed everything for his family. āIn one night ā in one night ā my wife lost her whole family. In one night. Her mother, her brother and her stepdad,ā said Godbold, commander of the Natchez, Mississippi, Police Departmentās criminal investigations. Godbold was staring straight at defendant Bernard James, 27. James is one of five men accused in the brazen Gonzales-area home invasion more than two years ago that led to the slaying of Godboldās in-laws, Shirley and Robert Irwin Marchand, and their 50-year-old son, Douglas Dooley. Since that February 2012 night, Godbold said, the joy in his wife Teresa Godboldās voice is gone and she continues to live in fear. James became the second defendant in the slayings to plead guilty and accept life in prison to avoid a potential death sentence. 74-year-old Robert Marchandās throat had been slashed, as had those of Shirley Marchand, 72, and Dooley on the night of Feb. 17, 2012. All three were severely beaten.
