You are grossly mistaken to believe that "the killings stopped" upon Wayne Williams arrest.
At least 63 other killings, matching the same perameters used to put the 29 victims ON the police list, have occured in Atlanta since Williams arrest. These types of murders continue in Atlanta today, and every other major metropolitian area. Only the police list stopped. |

How about this news? Lawyers for Wayne Williams and police authorities from DeKalb County, in conjuction with the Fulton County District Attorney, have announced that they will conduct DNA testing on three blood spots recovered from the rear of Wayne Williams' 1970 Chevy station wagon. Two of these blood spots, type-A blood, were linked to the body of 17 year old William Barrett, who's murder was blamed on Wayne Williams. Barrett's case was also among the 10 "pattern cases" used to convict Wayne Williams. But William Barrett never bled, according to formerDeKalb Co. Medical Examiner, Dr. Joseph Burton. Barrett, who died of strangulation. was stabbed post-mortem. But, according to Burton and famed forensic expert, Dr. Michael Baden, it's IMPOSSIBLE for a murder victim to bleed from a post-mortem inflicted wound.
The other blood spot found in that station wagon was a type-B spot. But, at the time, there were NO type-B victims on the Police List of "Missing and Murdered." What did they do? They went out and FOUND a type-B vicitm to add to their illogical and crazy list. John Porter, age 29, a recently murdered black man, had type-B blood. So, Porter became the 29th and final victim on "the list."
