Just gonna put this out there -

As a person who regularly listens to these criminal trial streams in the background at work, I cannot WAIT for this one. I have absolutely no clue what his defense attorneys are trying to do at this point. Why he's fired countless public defenders and won't just plea is way beyond me. HUGE waste of taxpayer dollars going through this trial, and this is a perfect example of when prosecutors should go after the death penalty; at the very least of reasons being because of the amount of money he's already wasted the state, because he's without a doubt guilty.

Also really obsessed with how terrible of a person this guy was.

3/3/2013 9:45:27 PM

He makes the second cold blooded murderer I have met face to face.

ok grant

The best punishment would be to destroy any record of his creative endeavours including his art and music. Being the complete narcissist he is that is the one way to really get to him.

8/16/2013 7:42:11 PM

Yeah, I'm pretty sure they're going to disappear pretty quickly without anyone having to do anything.

Agreed. Nobody would know who Sid Vicious was if it weren't for the Sex Pistols gaining fame first. There have probably been thousands of guys just like him since he gained popularity; yet none of them are remembered outside of the genre specific fans. I'd be very surprised if Grant Haze has genre specific fans to remember his legacy.

8/29/2013 4:44:44 PM

I read that his defense is claiming that his new wife did it, and he just tried to help her cover it up and chop her up.

8/29/2013 4:54:33 PM

The little bit I watched was the testimony of her friend/coworker talking about how scared she was of him. Yeah, his defense is claiming the wife did it and he was only an accessory. From what I've gathered though, he's the one who wanted her out of the way so he could have the kids, and he's the one who "invited her over" that day.

That wink is not a shop.

8/30/2013 5:08:02 AM

What a cocksucker. I love how he's throwing his current wife under the bus for killing his ex.

^Somebody should print that off and stick it under his art at Sushi Blues.

"It was sometime around July 2009, Jason Ackerson said, when his sister, Laura Ackerson, came to him looking for a place to stay. The pair ultimately decided it would be best for her and her young son to live elsewhere after the boyfriend, Grant Ruffin Hayes, reportedly threatened her. "She said the defendant had stated that, 'If you go stay with your brother, I will hunt you down or my goon squad will hunt you down and kill you,'" Jason Ackerson testified. Jurors, however, weren't allowed to hear that testimony. Superior Court Judge Donald Stephens said that the timing of the statement was too far removed from Ackerson's 2011 death."

Quote :

"On Friday, Laura Ackerson's best friend, Heidi Schumacher, testified that Grant Hayes also threatened them both. "He just went off and said, 'I have friends. I'm powerful. My friends are powerful, and I can kill you,'" she said. "Then, he said, 'Don't (expletive) with me.'""

What makes him "powerful"?

9/4/2013 12:24:22 PM

His ability to wield a knife in a stabby motion?
It's not a particularly rare power.

9/4/2013 12:33:44 PM

somebody should stick a knife through his art at Sushi Blues.

"Amanda Hayes' 23-year-old nephew, Shelton Berry, testified that, while the Hayeses were on the Texas trip, Grant Hayes asked him about whether the reptiles, as well as feral hogs – both common in Texas – eat people. "I just thought he was curious," Berry said. "I thought he was a city boy scared of them." Grant Hayes also wanted to go shark fishing about 90 minutes away, Berry said. The two never did, though, because Berry didn't have time. Berry's younger brother, Dalton Berry, also testified about a similar discussion about alligators and the depth of the creek – as deep as 13 feet in some areas. He also said he overheard Grant Hayes on the phone while washing out coolers the day before returning to North Carolina. "'I don't need an alibi. I was with my family,'" Dalton Berry quoted him as saying. "He was on the phone a lot." Grant Hayes ended up leaving several of the coolers behind, Dalton Berry said, saying he didn't have room in his SUV once he returned a U-Haul trailer he had rented in Raleigh. Latour said he noticed several of the coolers while he was at the Berrys' home. He also saw a machete that Shelton Dalton said Grant Hayes also left behind. Near a feral hog pen near the Berrys' home, Latour testified that he also found packaging from a pair of gloves that Grant Hayes bought from Home Depot, along with a 32-gallon plastic trash can and the four containers of acid."

So did any details of how the murder occurred in the apartment come out? All we know is she was murdered in the apartment then dismembered. Any specific cause of death given? Were the kids in the apartment while the murder occurred?

9/5/2013 2:35:41 PM

I think I read that Amanda Hayes' adult daughter had the kids, and when she brought them back, Amanda asked to borrow her vacuum.

"A Raleigh man accused of killing his ex-girlfriend wrote in a Facebook message four months before her death that a "nasty" custody dispute between the two over their 2- and 3-year-old sons was draining him of his savings. "Eight-five grand in legal fees, forensic evaluators, shrinks … all on me, of course," Grant Hayes, 34, wrote in the March 15, 2011, message to a friend. "The good news is that the courts gave primary custody to me of both boys in a temporary order … The bad news is that I've gone from having the financial security to allow my wife and I to stay home all day to selling jewelry just to keep the lawyers on the case and the lights on." Further Facebook messages – revealed to jurors Monday in Hayes' first-degree murder trial – have him characterizing 27-year-old Laura Ackerson as a "woman scorned" who was after him for his money and "making life for me as difficult as possible." "My ex, Laura, was crazy, and I didn't know it 'til it was too late," Hayes wrote in a May 24, 2011, message. "We had two kids together, and she's still putting me through hell. I've been married over a year to another woman, and I still have to hear her voice every day.""

lol at "after him for his money"
