The widow of slain federal agent David Wilhelm watched intently Wednesday as attorneys for six current or former Fulton County Sheriff’s Department employees told appeals judges that their clients should not be sued for mistakes they made in letting Brian Nichols escape from the Fulton County Courthouse on March 11, 2005.
