KINGSTREE, S.C. (WCIV) — More than a dozen family members of a United States Postal Service worker murdered in September attended an emotional hearing at Williamsburg County Bond Court on Wednesday.

“Everybody in this community, people who never met her, are hurt,” says Tameka Gibson, the victim’s daughter-in-law.

None hurt more than the 13 members of Pressley’s family, including sister Elisha Hubbard. “It’s a wonderful day. It’s still full of pain, but it’s a wonderful day. Pressley’s son even called Davis a coward in the courtroom. ABC News SC
