Changes: Laura Williams (CSI: Miami)

Revision as of 21:09, 14 March 2020

Laura Williams (Fay Masterson) was the main villainess from "Mommie Deadest," the antepenultimate episode of CSI: Miami's eighth season (airdate May 10, 2010). She was the wife of Chuck Williams, and the couple had three children together: Andrea, Cody and Bradley.

Laura came across as a perfect wife and mother, but it was later revealed that the image masked her evil personality as a sadistic mother. Her villainous backstory revealed a murderous instant on August 23, 2003, when Laura blamed her 5-year-old son Bradley for burning the carpet, and forced him to drink lighter fluid as punishment. As a result of Laura's cruel actions, Bradley died of the effects, but even after her youngest son's death, Laura bullied Chuck into keeping quiet, telling him that they would lose Andrea and Cody if Bradley's death was reported.

Bradley's death was officially listed as an accident, and in the years that passed, the abuse continued. As Andrea revealed, her evil mother handcuffed her to the bed as punishment for sneaking out to see her boyfriend, and a Thanksgiving incident where Laura abused Andrea and forced her to dine out of a dog dish. When 911 was called during one incident, Laura charmed the dispatchers by offering soda to them, allowing her to get away with her abuse scot free.

In the beginning of the episode, Laura and Chuck were celebrating their 20th wedding anniversary, but after the party ended, she had her violent sights on Cody, as he accidentally stained the couch with one of his markers. Cody was very fearful of his mother, and he also feared that he would be blamed for a broken light. With his mother on the warpath, Cody came from behind and struck her with a bat. The villainess snarled at her son and charged at him, only to be fatally struck on her head by Cody.

Trivia

Fay Masterson also played murderer Amy Dujardin on Life and villainous Senator Melinda Batson on The Mentalist, and later played vengeful villainess Colleen Carter in the 2016 film The Maid.
Laura Williams is similar to Nancy Cavanaugh, a villainess from Taxi Brooklyn, as both were mothers who constantly abused their children, while playing the part of the perfect mother to hide their malevolent personalities. Both of them also met the same fate: killed by their children in self-defense.
