William Bolton bio
William Thomas Bolton, 53, was born to Chadwick and Martha Bolton in Oxford, Mississippi. Chad was a land developer, and Martha stayed home to raise their three children: William and twins Rebecca and Roger.
Early in the marriage, Chad inherited a significant sum of money from his father, which he decided to use to buy up property for development. His first venture was a shopping mall, and its success helped make him a wealthy man.
When William finished high school, he opted to work for his father instead of attending college because he wanted to follow in his footsteps. Chad taught him well, and William was soon handling projects on his own.
While taking a well-earned vacation in Florida with his friends, William met a beautiful young blonde woman named Pam Marshall. It was love at first sight. With some coaxing from his friends, he got the nerve to talk to her. The couple had a long-distance relationship at first, but William convinced Pam to relocate to Oxford after she graduated from nursing school.
William and Pam married a few years later and settled into a nice three-bedroom house. William promised her one day she would have the house of her dreams. When Pam gave birth to their only child, she stayed home with him until he was five years old. Then, she resumed working as a nurse.
Now that William had a family of his own, he decided to start his own business with his inheritance from his grandfather. He bought up property and built his first subdivision. It was a success, and he became wealthy like his father before him.
When his son was 10, William decided it was time to build a bigger and better house for them. He found the perfect spot in a great neighborhood and convinced Pam to stop working to help design the house. Pam poured her heart and soul into the project. It took two years to complete, and then they moved into their new home.
William wanted to get to know all their neighbors, so they had an open house and invited the entire neighborhood. Beginning with that first encounter with Victor Jennings, William thought he was obnoxious, and Pam felt very uncomfortable around him. Victor bragged he was a literary agent and knew many important people, but William thought he looked like a thug and didn't trust him or particularly like him.
Last year, Victor decided to put up a fence along the property line he shared with the Boltons. According to William's estimates, Victor had placed the fencing eight feet into the Bolton property. An official survey of the land proved William was right, and he asked Victor to move the fence. Victor refused, and William hired a lawyer. The case was still pending at the time of Victor's death.
