Brian Nichols timeline 2005-2008
On Sunday, March 13, 2005, Ashley Smith wipes away tears as she recounts her hostage experience with Nichols who ambushed Smith at her Duluth apartment complex. She told police where to find Nichols when he allowed her to leave the apartment 26 hours after Nichols fled the Fulton County Courthouse. She has since remarried and now goes by Ashley Robinson.
