    2. It makes sense to me. I do know that there are Littles here in McLean County. In fact, there was just a murder trial here in McLean County for a murder 10 almost 11 years ago of an 18 year old gas station attendant named Bill or William Little. The man was just sentenced to life yesterday for his murder. Here are the details of the sentencing.: Snow sentenced to life By Pantagraph staff > Jamie Snow BLOOMINGTON -- Jamie Snow, the former Bloomington man convicted of the 1991 murder of a Twin City service station employee, was sentenced to natural life in prison today.Snow, 35, of St. Petersburg, Fla., also has no chance at parole, according to the sentencing order handed down by McLean County Circuit Judge Donald Bernardi after a three-hour hearing.In January, a McLean County jury convicted Snow of first-degree murder, agreeing that trial evidence proved Snow shot 18-year-old William Little at the now-closed Clark Super 100 station in the 800 block of East Empire Street in Bloomington.Little was shot twice in the chest during a robbery that netted $92.In August 2000, another jury acquitted co-defendant Susan Claycomb, 29, of Columbia, Tenn., of murder for allegedly driving the getaway car for Snow.The backbone of the prosecution's case was testimony from several witnesses who said snow admitted killing Little or made statements implicating himself in the shooting.Snow claimed those witnesses were lying, mistaken or confused. He testified at the end of his two-week trial that he was at home with his wife and children at the time of the shooting. <A HREF="http://wire.ap.org/?FRONTID=WORLD"> </A> Specials > . > ~Debbie In McLean County, Illinois~
