By: Joe Strupp The
Courier News in Bridgewater, N.J., published on Thursday a transcript of a 911 call made from the home of former NBA star Jayson Williams the night he allegedly killed a limousine driver last year.
The publication became possible after a state appeals court decided Wednesday that a tape of the 16-minute call was a public record. The newspaper had requested access to the tape under the state's Open Public Records Act.
The ruling of a three-judge panel reversed a decision by Superior Court Judge Edmund Bernhard in Hunterdon County, where Williams is facing an aggravated-manslaughter charge, along with seven others related to the shooting death Costas "Gus" Christofi on Feb. 14 of last year.
The
Courier News reported Friday that Williams on Thursday pleaded not guilty a second time to the aggravated-manslaughter charge.
