Many say Wayne Williams is innocent, many believe he did the murders, Wayne Williams also known as the Atlanta Child Murderer even though he was never charged for any child murders. Wanye was convicted of two murders of adults, prosecutors said, evidence connected him to the children's deaths but was never charged with them. Even though there wasn't much evidence to link him to the murders, just some fibers. Wayne Williams was born on May 27th 1958, in Atlanta Georgia, he was born to two school teachers, Homer and Faye Williams. He was a bright young boy whose teachers and classmates described him as a “virtual genius.”
I believe that Wayne Williams is guilty for the murder of the 2 Men and the 28 black kids but some people think he is not guilty for the murder of the 28 kids although he was only charged for 2 men but that is only what I believe but some people believe that someone else killed those 28 kids because “ the DNA testing was not yet a staple of courtroom science” that is one reason why people may think he only killed the two men but after he was sentenced life in prison the police of Atlanta Georgia found out that he was also guilty for the murder of the 28 child murders. That is why i believe Wayne Williams is guilty for the murder of the 28 kids and 2 men and the reason for that is because if he was willing to kill two men then that means that

Wayne Williams, Georgia’s child killer, case should not be reexamined because he had been rightfully convicted after he was tried for the murders of two men. They found fibers on the bodies when discovered in the river after Williams dumped there and tried to evade the scene. I do agree with the verdict as he was found guilty. Previously he had been interrogated when detained near the scene after he tried to flee from the scene. While I don’t think polygraph should be taken as valid proof he did fail several tests.
The fiber evidence presented in this case was so overwhelming and simply was the driving force leading to Wayne Williams conviction. I do not believe the prosecution would have been able to obtain the same results without it. The credibility of the FBI forensics investigators and their reputable crime lab made for excellent testimony concerning the fiber evidence at trail, which the defense was simply ill prepared to counter attack its merits (The Atlanta, n.d.). Other evidence was presented in this case, and much of this evidence while certainly impactful on the case and to members of the jury, this evidence alone without the fiber evidence would surely not have held up to the standard of beyond a reasonable doubt.
Williams is denying the crimes he committed. Stanley Williams was violent person growing up because of his child hood and the founder of a gang named Crips. Williams states " I am innocent and, yes, I have been a wretched person, but I have redeemed myself." This quote means that Stanley is denying what he did and is claiming that he is innocent but is still expressing how he changed from how he was before. One may think that even though he is denying his crimes, he still chenged from them, This supports my claim because it shows Williams is denying his crimes.

There are several Psychological theories that could contribute a path to delinquency. They include psychodynamic theory, the attachment theory, the moral development theory and the behavioral theory just to name a few. In researching information on Eric Smith, I believe he had several underlying issues that contributed to his violent senseless crime against a helpless little boy. I feel the lack of moral development was a huge factor that caused this youth to explode. Eric Smith was 13 years old, in 1993, when he murdered Derrick Robie, a 4-year-old little boy.
