One of the darkest moments in Atlanta’s history. 29 black children and young adults were murdered between 1979 to 1981. Wayne Williams was convicted of two of the adult murders, but questions have persisted whether he was guilty of all the murders.
Following an 11Alive Investigation, Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms ordered the cases reopened.
Will other suspects emerge? Neima Abdulahi takes you inside that Investigation with an exclusive interview with a reliable source, on camera, saying for the first time he knows that Wayne Williams wasn’t responsible for one of the child murders.

I pray for justice to be done, and for healing to come for all concerned.

Atlanta Police Department Is No Different Than The Dallas Police Department.

it's a shame how much effort was put into sweeping this under the rug.

Open up the case!! And why the hell does Miss Katherine have to beg for memorial!!!

Ohhh but when God brings justice, it is nothing they will be able to do to stop it

Back in the late 80s or early 90s they made a movie on HBO or Showtime with Gregory Hines playing an FBI agent investigating the Atlanta child murders and the movie concluded that the klan was involved in the murders, now it was not taken serious because it was a movie, but the movie probably got their info from this secret case on the kkk. Its been 40 years since these murders started and still have not been solved, my Heart goes all to all of those families that suffered this horrific tragedy, incredibly sad. SMDH.

Someone vulnerable has to be the scapegoat

Families need the closure. Please reveal the truth.

This could be solved....DNA. with technology today. These poor babies, and their families, IMO this can be solved.

Theres a reason why wayne williams was never charged with the murders

So what happens next?. .oh yeah we'll just sweep it under the rug... no one will be held accountable.

I remember when this was going on, I was creeped out all the way from Denver, (and although I was white). I would run to get the paper off the porch every day when I woke up, hoping they had caught the person. Then, when I saw that Wayne Williams had been convicted for two of the killings, I didn't feel satisfied that the case had really been solved. I hope they can settle this, and lay it to rest.
