Wayne Williams And The Night Stalker

Another famous case I researched was the Wayne Williams case in which Wayne Williams was convicted on physical evidence of fibers as well as a witness for the murder of two adults, Nathaniel Carter (age 27) and Jimmy Ray Payne (21). He was suspected for more than 20 murders on a 98% certainty but further conviction was prevented based on the 2% uncertainty. A similar case was the Richard Ramirez case, or better known as the “Night Stalker”. In the span of a two-year period, he raped and tortured more than 25 victims as well as killed over a dozen other victims. Ramirez’s final attack led the police to find fingerprints on a stolen car that led to a positive identification. He was convicted for 13 of the killings, which lead to the death penalty.
