Col. Russell Williams is being described as “evil, pure evil.”
Those words are from Andy Lloyd, whose sister Jessica was brutally raped and murdered by Williams.
In delivering his victim impact statement to a Belleville, courtroom, Lloyd said his father _ who spent 25 years in the navy _ would have been “mortified” to learn that his daughter’s killer was a military commander.
Lloyd’s father died of cancer when she was 14, some 13 years before Williams took the woman captive, raped her repeatedly, and murdered her earlier this year.
The whole side of the courtroom where the family sat broke out in applause after Andy Lloyd left the witness stand.
Williams has been convicted of two counts of first-degree murder in the killings of Lloyd, 27, and Cpl. Marie-France Comeau, 37, and dozens of other charges, including sexual assaults.
