The family members of James Cotaling (photo lower left) look through a family photo album remembering some of the good times. Their brother and son, James Cotaling was brutally stabbed to death 20 years ago in Pontiac, and now his murderer is now being considered for clemency by Gov. Jennifer Granholm. The family, needless to say, is very upset about that possibility. Family members (L-R) are brothers & sisters, John Cotaling, Jody Robinson, Roberta Featherstone, Jack Cotaling (father), Christine Cook, and Jeff Cotaling. The Oakland Press/DOUG BAUMAN
