The General Hospital spoilers for Monday, January 19, 2026, focus on a horrified Anna and a jury found Willow not guilty of shooting Drew. We all know the jury was wrong… dead wrong.
Key Takeaways
- Willow is found not guilty, sending shockwaves through Port Charles.
- Anna’s captivity takes a darker, more horrifying turn.
- Warnings fly as tensions rise for Drew, Nina, and the PCPD.
The Verdict: Not Guilty
The jury deemed Willow (Katelyn MacMullen) not guilty, which means they bought her steady testimony on the stand. And they bought the possibility that someone else — Michael Corinthos (Rory Gibson), specifically — could have been the one to shoot Drew (Cameron Mathison) instead of Willow. After all, who would marry the man that they had shot?
Willow would. That’s who. Look for the verdict in Willow’s trial to create shockwaves. This trial will undoubtedly continue to shake up relationships, as some believe they were right to back Willow. They have to be feeling good…for the moment.
Willow hopes to use her husband to secure visitation and maybe custody of her kids. Here’s the thing. She feels she has everybody fooled. But there are people out there who know the truth. So maybe that fact won’t let Willow off the hook just yet.
Anna’s Captivity Worsens
WSB Director Ross Cullum (Andrew Hawkes) sounded like he would take Anna (Finola Hughes) far away from Port Charles (or at least Spoon Island) after she attempted an escape and was this close to success. For now, what they’re doing is distracting her by drugging her to the point she is hallucinating Liesl Obrecht (Kathleen Gati). And they are piping in Faison’s voice to make her think the criminal mastermind is still alive.
On Monday, the weekly spoilers reveal that her torture may even get worse when Anna is horrified. Does she start to hallucinate Faison (Anders Hove)? Once again, let’s hope someone figures out that Anna is being held captive in town and works to free her.
More Warnings Issued
The January 16 spoilers suggested that Nina (Cynthia Watros) issued a warning to Drew. And she did. She told him that if Willow were found guilty, she would shove Alexis aside in favor of her own lawyers, who would handle the appeal. Guess what happens on Monday?
Drew issues a warning to Nina. He’s sitting pretty right now, thinking that everything he did — including his unhinged testimony — was right. Because Willow is free like he originally intended. This warning he issues to Nina may be about staying out of his and Willow’s business, because he always knows what she needs.
Conflict and Cryptic Offers
Additionally, on Monday, Sonny (Maurice Benard, who’s a big San Francisco 49ers fan) makes a cryptic offer. Meanwhile, his son is all up in his feelings. Dante (Dominic Zamprogna) is a mess over how he has handled the Willow Cain case, and now she’s free. And it leaves him wondering if he did have a one-track mind and an unconscious urge to protect Michael.
As acting commissioner, he must also decide whether or not to pursue a case against Michael. After all, Willow was acquitted. That leaves no justice for Drew. Plus, there’s the matter of a suspended Chase (Josh Swickard), who undermined the police investigation by going rogue with his own investigation and criticizing his boss’s actions on the witness stand. The teasers hint at Dante being conflicted. Will he work through those conflicts to determine the next steps for the PCPD?
