Wayne Williams' Old Car Gets New Owner
But Edward Blackwelder guards Wayne Williams’ old Chevelle as if it was a first edition Corvette, hoping the car that helped convict Georgia’s most notorious felon will one day exonerate him.


Williams, he said, is nothing more than a convenient scapegoat with bad timing.

“The main thing Wayne had against him was being on that bridge at the wrong time,” he said.

After the elder Williams died in 2005 the station wagon remained at his home in Columbus. Four years of neglect have taken a toll; Blackwelder said the car is no longer driveable, even though it has logged a mere 26,046 miles.

1. The murders didn't stop when Wayne Williams went to prison.
There is still a child murderer operating in that area. Although, there are theories that there is more than one murder, but probably people from the same group, something out of the playbook of the KKK. MOs changed and were not consistent. Lazy police work is to blame.

2. Wayne Williams probably didn't do
all those murders, but I believe he did some of them.
