Both men are charged with the 2015 murder of Donovan Thomas, a centerpiece count in the state’s case. Williams is not charged with the murder.

Quamarvious Nichols, 29, pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to violate Georgia’s Rico act.

High Desert is the story of Peggy Newman of Yucca Valley, California. If you have seen BBC One’s Rain Dogs, it will be easier for you to understand this comedy-drama that revolves around a woman who is trying to get by in life. She is middle-aged and single; she has just lost her mom, and the world is very harsh. It is an exploration of life and its ups and downs, or to be more appropriate, its highs and lows.
