News An arrest in L5P shooting
Posted by Mara Shalhoup on Fri, Jun 8, 2007 at 8:43 PM
The Atlanta Police Department just issued a press release stating that an arrest was made last night in the May 22 murder of Terry Williams.
The suspect is described as a 19-year-old male. Atlanta police had released a sketch of the suspect on May 30. His name has not been released.
Williams, a beloved resident of the neighborhood and a former bartender at the Euclid Avenue Yacht Club, was walking from the bar to his Seminole Avenue apartment at around 12:30 a.m. when he was shot in the head during an attempted mugging.
Williams died from his injuries a week later.
UPDATE: The suspect was identified early Saturday as Cori Williams. A search of Fulton jail records shows that he was arrested once before by Atlanta Police, for theft by receiving stolen property in 2005.

There is no punishment severe enough for someone who would take a person like Terry from us. Human rights are inherent, but some prove themselves unworthy of those rights and, even, unworthy of the right to breathe the same air as the rest of us. You know, us, the ones of us who don't shoot peple in the head for a few bucks becasue we want something(new shoes, Nontendo, crack, a hooker, etc). Rule of nature, predators die. Unfortunately, they usually do it less frequently and more mercifully, than their prey.
