Wayne Williams Case Study

From the summer of 1979 to the summer of 1981, at least twenty-eight people were abducted and killed during a murder spree in Atlanta, Georgia; these killings would come to be known as the Atlanta Child Murders. While the victims of the killings were people of all races and genders, most of the victims of the Atlanta Child Murders were young African-American males. These murders created great racial tension in the city of Atlanta, with its black population believing the murders to be the work of a white supremacist group. (Bardsley & Bell, n.d., p. l) However, when police finally apprehended a suspect in the case, they found it was neither a white supremacy group, nor a white person at all; it was a 23 year-old African-American man named

In January 1982, a white South Carolina widow named Dorothy Edwards was found dead in the closet of her bedroom in Greenwood. The crime shocked the town, not merely because it happened but because it was exceptionally bloody. As a forensic pathologist testified in the murder trial that followed soon after, she had “thirty-three

The Case of the West Memphis Three involves the three teenage boys accused and convicted of murdering Michael Moore, Stevie Branch, and Christopher Byers in West Memphis, Arkansas on May 5th, 1993. The investigation, trial, and appeals that followed would put the Arkansas criminal justice system under scrutiny for their actions. The West Memphis Police Department arrested and charged Jason Baldwin, Damien Echols, and Jessie Misskelly, Jr. with the three boy’s murders. The entire case was under the constant watch of the media and brought a great deal of attention to the actions and conduct of the West Memphis Police Department, as well as the Arkansas criminal justice system. Many outsiders got involved with the West Memphis Three case. Among these outsiders were famous musicians Eddy Vedder, lead singer of Pearl Jam and Natalie Maines of the Dixie Chicks, famous actors including Johnny Depp, and superstar director Peter Jackson. These celebrities helped to raise awareness of the case as well as to help raise money for the West Memphis three to obtain appropriate post-conviction representation and unbiased forensic testing and analysis in the hopes of exonerating them of their convictions. While the new forensic evidence (and the new testing and expert analysis of the original evidence) ultimately helped the West Memphis Three become free men again, the question still remains as to who really murdered those three boys on May 5th, 1993 in West Memphis, Arkansas. Because the

Wayne Bertram Williams was born, May 27, 1958, and raised in the quaint Dixie Hills neighborhood of Atlanta Georgia. As an aspiring disk jockey, Williams operated a novice radio station from the inside of his parents' home. In addition to being a DJ, Williams was well-known around his neighborhood for seeking out local musicians, particularly those in their teenage years (Blanco, 2016). Williams has a poor reputation around his community, he was known as a liar and often came up with embellished stories concerning his personal life. Besides being a nuisance, his only encounter with the law, prior to him being a murder suspect, was in 1976 when he was arrested for impersonating an officer (Blanco,

A special report made by Chicago Magazine, “The Truth About Chicago’s Crime Rates”, informs about the way authorities in the city had in recent year reclassify crime rates through the manipulation of statistics. The article investigates specific cases of murders that occurred in Chicago’s South and West side neighborhoods. In July 2013, Tiara Groove, a 20-year old black African American from South Austin, was found dead inside a warehouse, “Her face and body were bloated and badly decomposed”, and a thin and brown wire “was wrapped around each armrest of a wooden chair next to her flesh”. Despite the pathologist not been able to find the exact cause of the death, it was indicated that it had been a homicide; but, the CPD did not counted as a murder and classified the case as “noncriminal death investigation”. This would be the onset of other similar cases that were investigated by the Chicago Magazine’s

Faber’s testimony was careful and responsible—and not very significant. She could not say how common the automobile fabric that she had examined is, or how many models and brands use it. Nor could she say how likely it was that the fabric from the car would show up on Wilson’s clothes. Faber used no statistics, because there was no way to establish with any precision the probability that the fibres came from the detectives’ car. DNA tests had proved that blood from one of the detectives was on Wilson’s clothes, and based on this fact, as well as on testimony from his accomplice and from Faber, Wilson was convicted and sentenced to death. “Given how much evidence they had in the case, I wasn’t crucial,” Faber told me. “The prosecutors liked the idea of fibre evidence in addition to everything else. Maybe they thought the jury would like it because it was more ‘CSI’-esque.”(thecsieffect)

An investigation into the development and application of fibre analysis and forensic genetics, with reference to the convictions of Wayne Williams, Simon Hall and Colin Pitchfork Within the last one hundred years, forensics has developed dramatically with new methods being used to convict criminals. Fibre analysis and forensic genetics are two of the most developed in terms of advancements in technology and their use in court to get a conviction. Wayne Williams, Simon Hall and Colin Pitchfork are breakthroughs in their convictions and so clearly demonstrate the development of forensics. Wayne Williams is a major case study within fibre analysis as it was a case based entirely on the fibres left on his victims. Simon Hall is the first murderer

He explained that with the short turn of road from the last meeting they prepared a draft set specifications for the road work that had been previously discussed. The thicker of the two packets is a draft of the bid specifications themselves. and the other packet was a memo comparing the Township’s construction and material specifications and Penn DOT’s construction and materials design.

Terry Jones spent some time away in the Royal Air Force—however when he returned, David and the Jones’ realized something else was going on (Trynka, 2011). When David was twenty, he took Terry to see the band Cream in hopes to go back to reconnecting with his hero, yet merely halfway through the set, Terry had to be taken out as he couldn’t handle the loud noises of the newly emerging hard rock (Trynka, 2011). As David recalled, Terry began to sway and once they headed outside, Terry had fell to the ground, stating that the Earth beneath him was opening up as fire spewed from its gravel. This was the first time David had seen or was aware of his brother’s schizophrenia. For a long time, David never shared this information with anyone—causing

This result required analysis from another technician, who ultimately concluded that some of the samples were consistent with Fritz’ hair.  It took this expert over two years to do his analysis, and he did so with the knowledge that when he was analyzing Fritz’ hair, Fritz was a suspect in the case.  (Other hair samples that he analyzed were not marked as having come from a suspect).
