The most damaging witness for the prosecution so far has been a tearful Kathryn Wood, the judge's widow, who read the court a five-page handwritten letter she received last September from Elizabeth Chagra. In the letter, Elizabeth apologized for her involvement in the murder. "One day in March three years ago, I was in the kitchen cooking fried chicken when my husband came home and said, 'I'm going to kill Judge Wood,' " she wrote, adding that she did not take the threat seriously. That summer, she wrote, her husband asked her to deliver some money to Las Vegas. "He said that this was for the payoff for your husband's murder." Harrelson's attorney, Thomas G. Sharpe Jr., says he will prove that the Harrelsons were 270 miles away in Dallas when Wood was killed.
