1
00:00:06,298 --> 00:00:08,378
Hey, Jerry. We're still down here.

2
00:00:08,467 --> 00:00:09,837
We got nothing on this side.

3
00:00:09,927 --> 00:00:11,967
Let me know what's happening
over there with you.

4
00:00:12,050 --> 00:00:15,880
Uh, yeah, we're at the, uh,
bridge up at Spring Street

5
00:00:15,900 --> 00:00:16,950
back here.

6
00:00:16,975 --> 00:00:19,725
Um, if we could get some
more lights, it'd be great.

7
00:00:44,127 --> 00:00:45,707
Campbell, anything?

8
00:00:48,006 --> 00:00:49,006
Negative.

9
00:00:49,091 --> 00:00:50,181
Don't take your eyes off the water

10
00:00:50,259 --> 00:00:51,659
until we get some boats down there.

11
00:01:03,770 --> 00:01:04,814
Nothing.

12
00:01:05,320 --> 00:01:07,300
Recruit's positive he heard a splash.

13
00:01:07,330 --> 00:01:09,320
We don't have a body, we can't hold him.

14
00:01:09,403 --> 00:01:10,613
We can hold him for as long as it takes

15
00:01:10,696 --> 00:01:12,986
to search his vehicle. Maybe
we find something in the car.

16
00:01:13,073 --> 00:01:14,163
If he'll let us.

17
00:01:14,241 --> 00:01:16,371
The name isn't on this registration.

18
00:01:16,702 --> 00:01:19,082
- Why are you driving it?
- It's my uncle's car.

19
00:01:19,162 --> 00:01:21,212
- Why do you have it?
- For work.

20
00:01:21,290 --> 00:01:22,960
At three o'clock in the morning?

21
00:01:23,041 --> 00:01:24,461
I'm in the music business.

22
00:01:24,876 --> 00:01:26,626
Nighttime is the right time.

23
00:01:26,712 --> 00:01:28,092
Right time for what?

24
00:01:28,171 --> 00:01:29,801
You mind if we search
your vehicle, Mr. Williams?

25
00:01:29,881 --> 00:01:31,091
Sure. Go ahead.

26
00:01:31,174 --> 00:01:33,014
Log everything for evidence
that I find in this car.

27
00:01:33,093 --> 00:01:35,853
So you were out working
this late at night?

28
00:01:35,929 --> 00:01:38,469
Well, I had to go pick up a
check. I'm a photographer.

29
00:01:38,557 --> 00:01:40,557
I thought you said you were
in the music business.

30
00:01:40,851 --> 00:01:42,141
I'm a Renaissance man.

31
00:01:42,227 --> 00:01:45,727
- So, where are you headed, da Vinci?
- A woman's apartment.

32
00:01:45,814 --> 00:01:47,404
- Girlfriend?
- Don't have a girlfriend.

33
00:01:47,774 --> 00:01:49,154
So who is she?

34
00:01:49,234 --> 00:01:51,904
A Miss, uh, Cheryl Johnson.
She gave me her number.

35
00:01:51,987 --> 00:01:53,737
Said she's a singer worth hearing.

36
00:01:56,325 --> 00:01:57,325
Jacobs!

37
00:01:59,536 --> 00:02:01,496
Run down there, try this number for me.

38
00:02:01,580 --> 00:02:03,120
By the way, it ends in a four.

39
00:02:03,206 --> 00:02:05,070
My dad says my fours look like nines.

40
00:02:05,090 --> 00:02:06,100
Okay.

41
00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:07,580
- Try 'em both.
- Got it.

42
00:02:08,211 --> 00:02:10,051
If you don't have a
girlfriend, whose are these?

43
00:02:10,130 --> 00:02:12,730
My mother's. They're garbage. I'm
supposed to throw all those out.

44
00:02:13,717 --> 00:02:16,757
That what you were doing on the
bridge, throwing out garbage?

45
00:02:16,970 --> 00:02:19,010
I wasn't doing nothing but crossing it.

46
00:02:19,097 --> 00:02:22,017
We heard a splash when you drove
over. You throw something off?

47
00:02:22,601 --> 00:02:24,651
- You mean like a kid?
- Yeah...

48
00:02:25,937 --> 00:02:26,937
like a kid.

49
00:02:27,689 --> 00:02:28,689
No, I did not.

50
00:02:29,650 --> 00:02:31,280
Do you own a dog, Mr. Williams?

51
00:02:32,110 --> 00:02:33,200
No, I do not.

52
00:02:33,278 --> 00:02:35,718
Note the hair on the back
seat and on the floor mats.

53
00:02:36,406 --> 00:02:37,616
What's the rope for?

54
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:39,620
With knots at both ends?

55
00:02:40,744 --> 00:02:41,834
And the gloves?

56
00:02:42,287 --> 00:02:44,327
Like I said, it's not my car.

57
00:02:46,541 --> 00:02:48,211
Mind if we talk where
it's more comfortable

58
00:02:48,293 --> 00:02:49,593
while they finish up?

59
00:02:52,964 --> 00:02:54,554
Log every piece of evidence.

61
00:04:44,201 --> 00:04:46,250
So what makes Cheryl Johnson so special

62
00:04:46,270 --> 00:04:48,211
you gotta hear her sing at 3:00 a.m.?

63
00:04:49,581 --> 00:04:50,791
Don't know yet.

64
00:04:50,874 --> 00:04:54,044
We got a meeting in the morning,
but I decided to do a trial run

65
00:04:54,127 --> 00:04:55,497
so I'll know where to go.

66
00:04:55,587 --> 00:04:57,877
- Where does she live?
- In Smyrna.

67
00:04:57,964 --> 00:04:59,054
Church Street.

68
00:05:00,675 --> 00:05:02,545
The FBI hiding under every
bridge in Atlanta now?

69
00:05:02,886 --> 00:05:05,716
If you don't mind, Mr. Williams,
we'll ask the questions.

70
00:05:06,014 --> 00:05:07,274
I get it. Confidential.

71
00:05:07,349 --> 00:05:09,519
A-T-64. A-T-64.

72
00:05:12,145 --> 00:05:13,855
A-T-64, go ahead.

73
00:05:13,939 --> 00:05:15,689
The number with the
four is disconnected.

74
00:05:15,774 --> 00:05:17,444
With a nine, there's no answer.

75
00:05:17,526 --> 00:05:19,986
- Roger.
- That was the number she gave me.

76
00:05:20,070 --> 00:05:22,740
Got an actual address for
her on Church Street?

77
00:05:23,490 --> 00:05:25,650
That's why I always get a phone number.

78
00:05:27,035 --> 00:05:28,945
Think I'll radio the admin agent.

79
00:05:29,329 --> 00:05:32,249
Let him know where we are
with this. Be right back.

80
00:05:40,841 --> 00:05:43,091
What do you think your
uncle uses rope for?

81
00:05:44,678 --> 00:05:47,398
Don't know. He's got so much stuff
in there. I don't touch any of it.

82
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:50,280
How did you know why we pulled you over?

83
00:05:50,900 --> 00:05:53,010
You're the FBI in Atlanta.

84
00:05:53,103 --> 00:05:55,653
What else is it gonna be about?
It's all that's ever on TV.

85
00:05:55,730 --> 00:05:57,070
You follow the story closely?

86
00:05:57,148 --> 00:05:59,528
- No, I'm just saying how it is.
- Wayne...

87
00:06:01,653 --> 00:06:04,283
- You mind if I call you Wayne?
- It's my name.

88
00:06:08,201 --> 00:06:10,951
Wayne, did you know any of
the victims? Their families?

89
00:06:11,413 --> 00:06:12,913
Think we all know each other?

90
00:06:13,540 --> 00:06:15,500
You didn't ask me if I know this cat.

91
00:06:15,584 --> 00:06:18,044
I'm specifically
interested in the victims.

92
00:06:18,795 --> 00:06:20,835
No. I wouldn't know any of 'em.

93
00:06:20,922 --> 00:06:22,222
You make it sound like
it wouldn't be possible.

94
00:06:22,299 --> 00:06:23,379
I'm not like them.

95
00:06:23,466 --> 00:06:24,966
Not like them? What does that mean?

96
00:06:25,051 --> 00:06:27,931
You know. Street kids. Runnin'
wild all hours of the night.

97
00:06:28,013 --> 00:06:29,813
This isn't "all hours of the night"?

98
00:06:29,973 --> 00:06:31,893
There's a difference in being
where you supposed to be

99
00:06:31,975 --> 00:06:33,305
and being where you aren't.

100
00:06:33,393 --> 00:06:35,403
What places are they not supposed to be?

101
00:06:35,478 --> 00:06:37,608
Like mall parking lots, maybe?
That sort of thing?

102
00:06:37,981 --> 00:06:39,731
If they're up to no good, yeah.

103
00:06:39,816 --> 00:06:40,816
Gentlemen...

104
00:06:41,610 --> 00:06:42,610
a word.

105
00:06:43,361 --> 00:06:44,361
Sit tight.

106
00:06:54,550 --> 00:06:55,619
What did he say?

107
00:06:55,630 --> 00:06:57,877
His first, second, and
third questions were,

108
00:06:57,959 --> 00:06:59,129
"Do you have a body?"

109
00:06:59,794 --> 00:07:01,884
- No.
- He says we have to let the guy go.

110
00:07:02,464 --> 00:07:03,674
We can't do that.

111
00:07:04,674 --> 00:07:07,304
That rope has knots on both its
ends. Next to a pair of gloves.

112
00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:08,330
And we have no evidence

113
00:07:08,340 --> 00:07:10,103
any of our victims were
strangled with a rope.

114
00:07:10,180 --> 00:07:11,430
But we know they were strangled.

115
00:07:11,514 --> 00:07:13,064
The admin agent was clear:

116
00:07:13,141 --> 00:07:16,191
unless that rope is instrumental
in a specific crime,

117
00:07:16,269 --> 00:07:17,399
we have to let him go.

118
00:07:18,980 --> 00:07:23,150
Christ. Black, early 20s, dog hair,
can't corroborate his alibi.

119
00:07:23,234 --> 00:07:24,234
Alibi for what?

120
00:07:26,780 --> 00:07:27,820
Mr. Williams!

121
00:07:29,741 --> 00:07:31,241
Thank you. You're free to go.

122
00:07:34,412 --> 00:07:36,572
Can I get an extra hand down here?

123
00:07:38,375 --> 00:07:40,085
You gentlemen have a good night.

124
00:07:40,961 --> 00:07:42,961
They already ran the plate.

125
00:07:51,972 --> 00:07:55,482
Do you believe his story? 3:00 a.m.
dry run for a morning meeting?

126
00:07:55,558 --> 00:07:56,978
Not a fucking word.

127
00:07:57,060 --> 00:07:59,620
But it's not about what we believe,
it's about what we can prove.

128
00:08:00,105 --> 00:08:02,065
Let me see the rope. Where is it?

129
00:08:03,024 --> 00:08:04,694
But you just said to
write everything down.

130
00:08:04,776 --> 00:08:05,816
You're shitting me.

131
00:08:05,900 --> 00:08:07,260
You didn't tell him to bag everything?

132
00:08:07,290 --> 00:08:09,340
I didn't think I had to.

133
00:08:11,116 --> 00:08:12,446
- Where are you going?
- Home.

134
00:08:12,534 --> 00:08:13,744
It's Memorial Day weekend.

135
00:08:13,994 --> 00:08:16,124
We should be searching
that river for a body.

136
00:08:16,204 --> 00:08:17,414
You're absolutely right.

137
00:08:17,497 --> 00:08:18,867
Let me know what you find.

138
00:08:30,969 --> 00:08:34,759
Unless he weighted it, against his
MO, it would have floated by now.

139
00:08:36,099 --> 00:08:38,099
He wasn't on his way to meet anyone.

140
00:08:38,476 --> 00:08:39,726
There will be a body.

141
00:08:40,145 --> 00:08:41,895
Only one guy heard the splash.

142
00:08:42,397 --> 00:08:44,267
The other three were probably asleep.

143
00:08:44,607 --> 00:08:46,487
Wayne Williams fits every
corner of our profile.

144
00:08:48,695 --> 00:08:50,945
What if we'd heard the same
splash, saw the same car,

145
00:08:51,031 --> 00:08:52,491
but a white guy had gotten out of it?

146
00:08:52,574 --> 00:08:55,084
- But he isn't white, so...
- Everything else being equal,

147
00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:57,620
what's the tipping point
for matching the profile?

148
00:08:57,912 --> 00:08:59,542
Four criteria, five?

149
00:09:00,331 --> 00:09:02,291
What about the six that he didn't fit?

150
00:09:02,667 --> 00:09:04,337
- You don't think he's worth pursuing?
- I do.

151
00:09:04,419 --> 00:09:05,960
But mainly because we
finally just got an answer

152
00:09:05,980 --> 00:09:07,000
at that second number.

153
00:09:07,255 --> 00:09:09,335
Nobody named Cheryl or
Johnson ever lived there.

154
00:09:09,424 --> 00:09:11,934
- Because Cheryl Johnson doesn't exist.
- Why say it?

155
00:09:12,010 --> 00:09:13,510
He knows we'll catch him in a lie.

156
00:09:15,638 --> 00:09:16,928
So let's catch him in it.

157
00:09:20,602 --> 00:09:22,102
Is there any breakfast?

158
00:09:22,812 --> 00:09:24,482
No. There's cereal if you want.

159
00:09:28,568 --> 00:09:30,198
That's okay.

160
00:09:33,281 --> 00:09:34,371
Nice day.

161
00:09:35,533 --> 00:09:37,083
Brian's not playing outside?

162
00:09:37,994 --> 00:09:39,584
He plays in his room now.

163
00:09:40,914 --> 00:09:45,464
I tried to make a playdate for
him over the long weekend.

164
00:09:46,252 --> 00:09:47,712
Everyone was out of town.

165
00:09:47,796 --> 00:09:50,836
- Well, maybe they really are, Nance.
- Bill, he's ostracized.

166
00:09:50,924 --> 00:09:52,764
You've seen it. I see it every day.

167
00:09:53,802 --> 00:09:55,722
It's our fault for keeping him here.

168
00:09:56,387 --> 00:09:58,677
We're not moving because of some kids.

169
00:09:58,765 --> 00:10:00,975
This isn't just about other kids.

170
00:10:01,643 --> 00:10:04,233
It's the parents. They
talk behind his back.

171
00:10:04,312 --> 00:10:05,352
His back or yours?

172
00:10:11,310 --> 00:10:14,520
How many times have we moved because
of your work over the years?

173
00:10:14,540 --> 00:10:15,560
Several.

174
00:10:15,580 --> 00:10:18,279
And how many times have we
moved because I've asked to?

175
00:10:18,993 --> 00:10:22,833
I'm asking because I believe it's
the only way to put this behind us.

176
00:10:22,914 --> 00:10:25,254
Honey, I'm only home for a few days.

177
00:10:25,542 --> 00:10:27,342
I just need to get some rest.

178
00:10:27,418 --> 00:10:28,418
Of course.

179
00:10:33,091 --> 00:10:34,761
I'm not saying no.

180
00:10:35,468 --> 00:10:37,548
We'll consider it, I promise.

181
00:10:38,221 --> 00:10:41,811
I just think right now what's best
for Brian is what's familiar,

182
00:10:42,892 --> 00:10:44,102
stability.

183
00:10:45,311 --> 00:10:46,561
Go and rest.

184
00:10:46,646 --> 00:10:48,476
We're taking him to the Y later.

185
00:11:22,015 --> 00:11:25,595
There he is, our Renaissance man.
You mind if we come inside, Wayne?

186
00:11:38,865 --> 00:11:40,325
My mom will be home soon.

187
00:11:40,408 --> 00:11:42,078
I'd appreciate it if y'all were brief.

188
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:43,450
We wanted to give you the opportunity

189
00:11:43,536 --> 00:11:46,326
to clarify any of your
statements from last night.

190
00:11:46,706 --> 00:11:49,166
It must have been unnerving
to be stopped by the FBI.

191
00:11:49,250 --> 00:11:51,340
Oh, it's cool. Y'all had a job to do.

192
00:11:51,419 --> 00:11:54,169
We finally got through on one
of the two possible numbers

193
00:11:54,255 --> 00:11:55,270
that you gave us.

194
00:11:55,300 --> 00:11:57,376
It belonged to a cosmetics company.

195
00:11:57,460 --> 00:11:59,050
No Cheryl Johnson ever worked there.

196
00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:00,630
That was the number she gave.

197
00:12:00,660 --> 00:12:02,640
And you're positive that was her name?

198
00:12:02,722 --> 00:12:04,392
As far as I remember.

199
00:12:04,474 --> 00:12:06,484
But I get folks calling all
the time, pranking me,

200
00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:08,899
so it's possible she may not exist.

201
00:12:08,978 --> 00:12:12,068
You were confident enough to
drive to Smyrna at 3:00 a.m.

202
00:12:12,148 --> 00:12:14,068
with no real address to find her.

203
00:12:14,150 --> 00:12:16,440
Um... gotta track down every lead.

204
00:12:16,903 --> 00:12:18,613
- Y'all understand that.
- So...

205
00:12:19,906 --> 00:12:21,656
tell us about your day yesterday.

206
00:12:24,035 --> 00:12:25,115
Um...

207
00:12:27,872 --> 00:12:29,002
Not much to tell.

208
00:12:29,415 --> 00:12:33,875
I, uh, slept late, had lunch,
played some ball at the rec center.

209
00:12:33,962 --> 00:12:35,172
- Which rec center?
- Ben Hill.

210
00:12:37,173 --> 00:12:38,473
Then I came home.

211
00:12:38,549 --> 00:12:40,549
And that's when my momma
told me a woman called.

212
00:12:40,635 --> 00:12:42,215
So, your mother actually took the call?

213
00:12:42,303 --> 00:12:43,473
Yeah. She took the message.

214
00:12:43,554 --> 00:12:45,394
Because last night you said
your nines look like fours,

215
00:12:45,473 --> 00:12:47,643
so we were under the
impression you took the call.

216
00:12:47,725 --> 00:12:51,515
No. I must have copied it down
from where my mother wrote it.

217
00:12:52,814 --> 00:12:55,294
- What time was that?
- I don't know. Uh...

218
00:12:55,733 --> 00:12:56,733
4:00.

219
00:12:57,470 --> 00:12:58,530
Then what?

220
00:12:58,611 --> 00:13:00,611
Then, I had dinner with my parents

221
00:13:01,030 --> 00:13:03,240
and went to Hotlanta
Records in College Park

222
00:13:03,324 --> 00:13:04,624
to pick up a check I was owed.

223
00:13:05,201 --> 00:13:07,791
Then I went to Sans Souci
to hear some music.

224
00:13:07,870 --> 00:13:09,410
- Sans Souci?
- Lounge.

225
00:13:10,123 --> 00:13:12,003
760 West Peachtree.

226
00:13:12,350 --> 00:13:13,460
I didn't stay long.

227
00:13:13,835 --> 00:13:15,835
Uh, then I went looking
for the place in Smyrna.

228
00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:17,710
And that's when y'all stopped me.

229
00:13:21,676 --> 00:13:23,756
- So, this is your parents' house?
- Yeah.

230
00:13:23,845 --> 00:13:25,715
- And you live here with them?
- Yes, sir.

231
00:13:26,514 --> 00:13:27,774
Surely a young...

232
00:13:28,683 --> 00:13:31,103
good-looking guy like you would
want to have his own apartment?

233
00:13:31,185 --> 00:13:33,855
I put all my money into my work.

234
00:13:33,938 --> 00:13:36,768
Which is what, exactly? You never
told us what you did in music.

235
00:13:55,585 --> 00:13:56,955
- May we keep this?
- Sure.

236
00:13:57,045 --> 00:13:58,375
They're all over town.

237
00:13:58,921 --> 00:14:00,721
So, you spend your time
searching for children?

238
00:14:00,798 --> 00:14:02,178
Searching for talent.

239
00:14:02,258 --> 00:14:04,178
When you find it, what do
you do with this talent?

240
00:14:04,260 --> 00:14:06,350
Usually, I have them record a demo.

241
00:14:06,429 --> 00:14:09,219
- What's in it for you?
- If they're good, I manage them.

242
00:14:09,307 --> 00:14:11,097
And if they're not, what
do you do with them?

243
00:14:12,477 --> 00:14:15,517
- I don't do nothing with 'em.
- Where do you find the talent?

244
00:14:16,356 --> 00:14:19,566
All over. You know, uh,
restaurants, arcades.

245
00:14:19,650 --> 00:14:21,400
Mall parking lots? Swimming pools?

246
00:14:21,944 --> 00:14:23,114
Never know where it's hiding.

247
00:14:23,738 --> 00:14:25,448
I figure, why should it
always be white people

248
00:14:25,531 --> 00:14:27,701
gettin' rich off the talent of brothers?

249
00:14:27,784 --> 00:14:29,744
You make much money from it?

250
00:14:30,620 --> 00:14:32,460
If I did, you'd think I'd be here?

251
00:14:32,538 --> 00:14:34,498
So right now, it's more of a fantasy?

252
00:14:34,582 --> 00:14:36,132
A grind is what it is.

253
00:14:36,209 --> 00:14:39,169
Why children? Such specific ages.

254
00:14:39,253 --> 00:14:41,013
Ever heard of The Jackson Five?

255
00:14:41,756 --> 00:14:43,466
Hmm? That's where the money's at.

256
00:14:44,092 --> 00:14:46,342
Would you happen to have the names
of some of your current clients?

257
00:14:46,427 --> 00:14:47,967
We'd love to speak with them.

258
00:14:48,054 --> 00:14:49,604
I'm in between acts.

259
00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:52,020
That's why I was out late
last night, scouting.

260
00:14:52,100 --> 00:14:53,390
Lookin' for talent.

261
00:14:54,811 --> 00:14:56,561
- What'd you find?
- Nothin'.

262
00:14:58,564 --> 00:14:59,734
Do you like children, Wayne?

263
00:15:02,276 --> 00:15:03,276
How do you mean?

264
00:15:04,487 --> 00:15:05,857
Do you like their company?

265
00:15:06,864 --> 00:15:08,204
I ain't never touched one,

266
00:15:09,075 --> 00:15:11,035
- if that's what you're asking.
- Of course not.

267
00:15:11,060 --> 00:15:12,080
But do you like them?

268
00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:14,410
Do you sympathize with those
that have gone missing?

269
00:15:14,497 --> 00:15:17,577
Yeah. Hell, I ain't much
older than some of 'em.

270
00:15:19,210 --> 00:15:23,420
Why are you knocking on my door anyway?

271
00:15:23,506 --> 00:15:25,626
I mean, it's... it's black
kids out there dying.

272
00:15:26,551 --> 00:15:28,641
Y'all should be rousting the KKK.

273
00:15:28,719 --> 00:15:29,719
Well...

274
00:15:31,055 --> 00:15:34,595
we're finding that these types of
killers rarely cross racial lines.

275
00:15:34,684 --> 00:15:35,984
What type of killer is that?

276
00:15:36,686 --> 00:15:37,806
Serial.

277
00:15:38,271 --> 00:15:39,271
Organized.

278
00:15:39,355 --> 00:15:40,515
Compulsive.

279
00:15:40,606 --> 00:15:41,606
Compulsive?

280
00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:43,240
About what?

281
00:15:43,270 --> 00:15:45,641
Well, without speaking to him,
I can't be certain, but...

282
00:15:46,446 --> 00:15:49,656
I believe he achieves
sexual gratification

283
00:15:49,740 --> 00:15:52,660
from choking and dominating his victim.

284
00:15:56,414 --> 00:15:58,391
You said last night that you
don't have a girlfriend,

285
00:15:58,791 --> 00:16:01,671
- is that right, Wayne?
- Yeah. That's right.

286
00:16:03,045 --> 00:16:04,045
Hmm.

287
00:16:07,133 --> 00:16:08,133
Think you'll catch him?

288
00:16:12,138 --> 00:16:13,138
I do.

289
00:16:13,848 --> 00:16:18,228
Well, I wish you luck.

290
00:16:19,020 --> 00:16:22,320
Thank you. That's very kind.

291
00:16:23,774 --> 00:16:25,534
Do you mind if I use your restroom?

292
00:16:25,610 --> 00:16:26,940
Down there, to your left.

293
00:16:45,004 --> 00:16:46,344
I said on the left.

294
00:16:46,422 --> 00:16:48,222
I thought you said you didn't own a dog.

295
00:16:48,299 --> 00:16:50,379
I don't. Sheba's my dad's.

296
00:17:07,068 --> 00:17:09,108
Wayne said he came by that
night to pick up a check.

297
00:17:09,195 --> 00:17:10,905
Do you recall what time that was?

298
00:17:10,988 --> 00:17:12,568
9:00, 9:30.

299
00:17:13,115 --> 00:17:14,775
Do you happen to have an invoice?

300
00:17:15,070 --> 00:17:16,163
Sure.

301
00:17:18,412 --> 00:17:20,412
Wayne says he's in the music business.

302
00:17:23,084 --> 00:17:25,004
Uh, he rents my studio.

303
00:17:26,212 --> 00:17:27,422
Holds auditions here.

304
00:17:32,009 --> 00:17:33,469
- There you go.
- Thank you.

305
00:17:34,053 --> 00:17:36,893
Is he in, uh, something
he not supposed to be in?

306
00:17:37,598 --> 00:17:39,598
We're just following up some statements.

307
00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:42,020
Does Wayne bring talent here?

308
00:17:42,103 --> 00:17:45,273
Oh, he's always in here with
somebody he discovered at the mall,

309
00:17:45,940 --> 00:17:47,150
the next big thing.

310
00:17:47,650 --> 00:17:49,190
Do you have any of his demos?

311
00:17:49,277 --> 00:17:51,857
No. Wayne ain't got no demos.

312
00:17:51,940 --> 00:17:53,390
Most of the time, they
just sit and talk.

313
00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:54,420
They talk?

314
00:17:54,490 --> 00:17:57,370
I mean, I've seen him in there
with some kid kicked back,

315
00:17:57,451 --> 00:17:59,621
laughing, for like an hour.

316
00:17:59,910 --> 00:18:01,490
But not my business

317
00:18:01,510 --> 00:18:03,630
how you use your time. You
know, you're payin' for it.

318
00:18:04,542 --> 00:18:06,842
- What do you charge?
- I charge 50 an hour.

319
00:18:07,461 --> 00:18:09,211
A little discount. He's a good kid.

320
00:18:09,297 --> 00:18:11,897
- And Wayne can afford that?
- Well, it's his daddy's money.

321
00:18:12,300 --> 00:18:15,340
I feel bad for Homer too. Ain't
like he Rockefeller or something.

322
00:18:23,019 --> 00:18:24,599
Do you have any of the talents' names?

323
00:18:24,687 --> 00:18:25,727
Uh-uh.

324
00:18:26,314 --> 00:18:27,904
How old are they usually?

325
00:18:28,065 --> 00:18:31,185
Uh, 14, 15. He's looking
for Michael Jackson.

326
00:18:31,277 --> 00:18:33,947
You said that Wayne was a "good kid."

327
00:18:34,030 --> 00:18:36,780
Yeah. He's polite, pays his bills.

328
00:18:36,866 --> 00:18:38,116
Cleans up after himself.

329
00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:40,160
I mean, he's a...

330
00:18:41,329 --> 00:18:43,056
- different kind of kid.
- Different?

331
00:18:43,456 --> 00:18:44,456
How exactly?

332
00:18:46,500 --> 00:18:49,800
I don't know. I... I don't
wanna get Wayne in no trouble.

333
00:18:50,296 --> 00:18:51,296
Of course not.

334
00:18:51,922 --> 00:18:53,342
He talks himself up.

335
00:18:53,424 --> 00:18:55,554
You know, but that's most
folks that come in here.

336
00:18:55,635 --> 00:18:57,215
Gotta fake it till you make it, right?

337
00:18:58,929 --> 00:19:00,099
Does he have a temper?

338
00:19:00,348 --> 00:19:02,178
Wayne? No. That boy ain't got no temper.

339
00:19:02,266 --> 00:19:05,306
So you never saw any signs
of anger or violence?

340
00:19:05,394 --> 00:19:07,234
Nah, Wayne is a chump.

341
00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:09,150
This is Wayne.

342
00:19:09,230 --> 00:19:11,400
One time he came in here,
and my assistant said

343
00:19:11,430 --> 00:19:13,700
he had cuts all up and down his arms.

344
00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:14,740
Right? Nasty.

345
00:19:15,154 --> 00:19:17,704
When she asked him about it,
he said he fell in a bush.

346
00:19:17,782 --> 00:19:19,992
Now, I'm sure he got his ass kicked.

347
00:19:20,534 --> 00:19:22,664
- Wayne ain't no fighter.
- When might that have been?

348
00:19:22,745 --> 00:19:24,705
I don't know. A few weeks ago.

349
00:19:25,247 --> 00:19:27,497
You can ask Charlene.
She'll be in here later.

350
00:19:28,668 --> 00:19:30,498
I'm gonna get back to
work, all right, fellas?

351
00:19:30,586 --> 00:19:31,916
Thank you for your time.

352
00:19:32,004 --> 00:19:33,004
Yep.

353
00:19:40,304 --> 00:19:41,724
That's it. Come on.

354
00:19:54,193 --> 00:19:55,823
How far away is this?

355
00:19:56,362 --> 00:19:58,572
Half mile downstream
from Wayne's bridge.

356
00:19:58,656 --> 00:20:01,116
Same spot Jimmy Payne was
found about a month ago.

357
00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:03,200
I checked the victim list
from around the time

358
00:20:03,285 --> 00:20:05,745
Wayne had those supposed
scratches on his arms.

359
00:20:05,955 --> 00:20:07,705
- Terry Pue.
- The one on Sigman Road.

360
00:20:08,749 --> 00:20:10,999
He was known around as
a tough kid. A fighter.

361
00:20:11,877 --> 00:20:13,877
He had lacerations on his body...

362
00:20:14,672 --> 00:20:16,222
as if he'd been in a struggle.

363
00:20:17,508 --> 00:20:18,588
I also found this.

364
00:20:20,210 --> 00:20:22,740
A composite of the man Lubie
Geter was seen talking to

365
00:20:22,770 --> 00:20:24,059
before he disappeared.

366
00:20:26,726 --> 00:20:29,096
You want it to feel like your palm.

367
00:20:30,271 --> 00:20:31,311
You feel that?

368
00:20:31,397 --> 00:20:33,357
Now feel the burger.

369
00:20:33,733 --> 00:20:34,863
Does it feel the same?

370
00:20:37,611 --> 00:20:39,451
I think it does. Ready?

371
00:20:43,868 --> 00:20:45,828
Perfect. Wanna try?

372
00:20:50,624 --> 00:20:51,924
Oh, that's okay.

373
00:20:52,501 --> 00:20:54,551
- Five-second rule.
- It's for you.

374
00:20:55,963 --> 00:20:56,963
It's Holden.

375
00:21:12,062 --> 00:21:13,062
It better be good.

376
00:21:13,700 --> 00:21:14,780
We found the body.

377
00:21:15,274 --> 00:21:17,284
- At the bridge?
- Downstream.

378
00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:18,609
- How far?
- Pretty close.

379
00:21:18,694 --> 00:21:20,034
We have a meeting tomorrow with the DA

380
00:21:20,112 --> 00:21:21,702
to talk surveillance and
warrants for Wayne Williams.

381
00:21:21,781 --> 00:21:23,701
He wants to hear from all
the agents at the scene.

382
00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:24,743
We have enough for that?

383
00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:26,380
Cheryl Johnson turned out to be a lie.

384
00:21:26,410 --> 00:21:28,245
That gives us a false exculpatory.

385
00:21:28,329 --> 00:21:31,499
And get this: we've always wondered
how he got them in the car.

386
00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:32,930
Flyers.

387
00:21:32,940 --> 00:21:33,970
Flyers?

388
00:21:34,001 --> 00:21:37,211
Williams hands out flyers to kids,
promising a record contract

389
00:21:37,296 --> 00:21:39,296
- if they'll go with him to make a demo.
- Oh.

390
00:21:39,381 --> 00:21:40,591
That's how he does it.

391
00:21:41,300 --> 00:21:44,350
Bill... this is him.

392
00:21:44,595 --> 00:21:45,595
I'm on my way.

393
00:21:51,852 --> 00:21:52,942
We may have him.

394
00:21:54,104 --> 00:21:55,104
You tell him.

395
00:21:57,316 --> 00:21:58,316
I won't.

396
00:22:10,955 --> 00:22:12,405
He'd been deceased two to three days,

397
00:22:12,498 --> 00:22:14,458
which does not rule
Williams out as a suspect.

398
00:22:14,542 --> 00:22:17,212
Cause of death is asphyxiation,
most likely by a choke hold.

399
00:22:17,878 --> 00:22:19,208
We found carpet fibers on the body

400
00:22:19,296 --> 00:22:21,216
consistent with what we've
found on other victims.

401
00:22:21,298 --> 00:22:24,388
The fibers we recovered are
green and a very unusual shape.

402
00:22:24,710 --> 00:22:26,720
I saw green carpet in Williams' home.

403
00:22:26,740 --> 00:22:27,840
But you don't know if it's a match.

404
00:22:28,138 --> 00:22:29,968
No, sir. There were dog
hairs on the victim.

405
00:22:30,057 --> 00:22:32,017
I found dog hairs in
the suspect's vehicle,

406
00:22:32,101 --> 00:22:35,151
- and his family owns a dog.
- I own a dog, Agent.

407
00:22:35,813 --> 00:22:37,653
Besides that, there was
a knotted nylon rope,

408
00:22:37,731 --> 00:22:40,111
- approximately 24 inches...
- Now that's material.

409
00:22:40,192 --> 00:22:41,862
Does it match wounds on any victim?

410
00:22:42,486 --> 00:22:44,566
It remained in the
vehicle and has since...

411
00:22:46,323 --> 00:22:48,203
- It can't be accounted for.
- So...

412
00:22:48,868 --> 00:22:50,948
we confiscated no physical evidence.

413
00:22:51,036 --> 00:22:52,706
Even though he gave permission
to search his vehicle.

414
00:22:52,955 --> 00:22:55,057
That's correct, sir. At
the time, we had no body

415
00:22:55,457 --> 00:22:57,997
and, therefore, no cause to believe
a crime had been committed.

416
00:22:58,085 --> 00:22:59,455
- Now, you have a body.
- Yes, sir.

417
00:22:59,545 --> 00:23:02,625
Which you can't physically connect
to the suspect or his vehicle.

418
00:23:02,965 --> 00:23:06,335
And you have a splash heard by
a probably sleeping recruit,

419
00:23:06,427 --> 00:23:08,927
which you can't definitively
connect to the body.

420
00:23:09,305 --> 00:23:11,515
- Who's the victim?
- Nathaniel Cater.

421
00:23:12,099 --> 00:23:15,139
Twenty-seven, 150 pounds, six foot one.

422
00:23:15,769 --> 00:23:17,439
Priors for trespass and
attempted burglary.

423
00:23:17,521 --> 00:23:19,901
You want warrants for a
multiple child murderer

424
00:23:19,982 --> 00:23:21,362
based on the death of an adult?

425
00:23:21,442 --> 00:23:24,742
Cater was a drunk and a
hustler. He'd be easy prey.

426
00:23:26,030 --> 00:23:27,910
Besides driving over a bridge

427
00:23:28,198 --> 00:23:31,408
at the same general time that this
victim was in the Chattahoochee,

428
00:23:31,577 --> 00:23:33,947
you have no physical connection

429
00:23:34,038 --> 00:23:36,168
between the deceased and your suspect.

430
00:23:36,916 --> 00:23:38,626
I can't issue warrants based on that.

431
00:23:38,709 --> 00:23:41,749
Sir, Williams fits the type of
perpetrator we've been looking for.

432
00:23:41,837 --> 00:23:42,917
He had a prior.

433
00:23:43,339 --> 00:23:45,799
He was stopped for
impersonating a police officer

434
00:23:45,883 --> 00:23:47,933
- and had a scanner in his car.
- A misdemeanor.

435
00:23:48,844 --> 00:23:52,224
We don't issue warrants based on
the "type" of person someone is.

436
00:23:53,265 --> 00:23:54,975
And the last warrants I obtained for you

437
00:23:55,059 --> 00:23:58,769
captured a man whose only sin was
pleasuring himself in the woods.

438
00:23:58,854 --> 00:24:00,614
A public relations debacle.

439
00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:02,400
We were wrong for even bringing him in.

440
00:24:02,420 --> 00:24:03,500
Yes, you were.

441
00:24:04,276 --> 00:24:08,656
Sir, we're not asking to search
his person and property yet.

442
00:24:09,573 --> 00:24:12,493
We're requesting 24-hour
surveillance and wiretaps.

443
00:24:12,576 --> 00:24:15,746
The last time the FBI wiretapped
a black man in Georgia,

444
00:24:15,829 --> 00:24:16,829
it was not well-received.

445
00:24:16,914 --> 00:24:19,384
With all respect, sir, Wayne
Williams is no Dr. King.

446
00:24:19,458 --> 00:24:21,958
If we're allowed surveillance, I'm
confident we'll find evidence

447
00:24:22,044 --> 00:24:24,304
- to validate your decision.
- I'll consider it...

448
00:24:25,005 --> 00:24:26,625
with what's left of my weekend.

449
00:24:35,641 --> 00:24:37,981
Today at city hall,
community activists met

450
00:24:38,060 --> 00:24:39,310
with city planners...

451
00:24:40,312 --> 00:24:43,022
Don't include the rope. If
he approves this thing,

452
00:24:43,107 --> 00:24:45,107
the judge will shoot it
down for the same reasons.

453
00:24:45,192 --> 00:24:46,230
Okay.

454
00:24:46,568 --> 00:24:48,028
That isn't very optimistic.

455
00:24:49,905 --> 00:24:52,565
- Odds on Slaton for the warrant?
- Fifty-fifty.

456
00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:55,280
- He either will or he won't.
- I say 30/70.

457
00:24:55,300 --> 00:24:57,787
We have a suspect in the
vicinity of the body.

458
00:24:57,870 --> 00:24:59,400
Vicinity. He's right,

459
00:24:59,430 --> 00:25:01,329
we have no material
connection to that body.

460
00:25:01,417 --> 00:25:03,167
Guys, it's an election year.

461
00:25:03,252 --> 00:25:05,020
It's about public opinion
as much as about evidence.

462
00:25:05,030 --> 00:25:06,039
Can you turn that up?

463
00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:07,420
authorities to bring an end

464
00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:09,466
to the child murders gripping Atlanta.

465
00:25:09,550 --> 00:25:13,510
A certain mood exists in America,
encouraged by our leaders,

466
00:25:13,595 --> 00:25:17,465
that it is all right to do
anything to black people.

467
00:25:18,183 --> 00:25:19,483
Across the country,

468
00:25:19,893 --> 00:25:23,773
our children are being killed, and
our future is being wiped out.

469
00:25:23,856 --> 00:25:25,646
That is why I have come...

470
00:25:25,733 --> 00:25:27,533
to our nation's capital,

471
00:25:27,985 --> 00:25:29,902
- to say, "No."
- Special Agent Ford.

472
00:25:29,987 --> 00:25:31,780
To the value of a child's life

473
00:25:31,821 --> 00:25:34,197
being judged by the color of their skin.

474
00:25:34,283 --> 00:25:35,453
Thank you, sir.

475
00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:38,760
Slaton. "In light of the
crisis situation in Atlanta,

476
00:25:38,780 --> 00:25:39,790
an exception has been made."

477
00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:43,788
while they continue to bury
their sons and daughters...

478
00:27:01,787 --> 00:27:03,077
Shit.

479
00:27:06,834 --> 00:27:07,844
Someone's up.

480
00:27:09,545 --> 00:27:10,545
I lost it.

481
00:27:11,755 --> 00:27:12,755
What?

482
00:27:13,924 --> 00:27:15,884
I... I dropped the fucking thing.

483
00:27:23,684 --> 00:27:26,694
Hold on. Found it.

484
00:27:27,980 --> 00:27:29,690
Hurry up.

485
00:27:35,821 --> 00:27:37,031
They're on the move.

486
00:27:38,073 --> 00:27:39,743
I need more time.

487
00:27:44,288 --> 00:27:45,748
Fuck it. Get out now.

488
00:27:45,831 --> 00:27:47,081
Go.

489
00:28:07,394 --> 00:28:09,394
- Who the hell is up at this hour?
- Did you do it?

490
00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:13,730
We can track him. Just
can't listen to him.

491
00:28:25,537 --> 00:28:26,537
Thanks.

492
00:28:33,503 --> 00:28:36,803
Says here, Wayne once worked for
the Department of Public Safety.

493
00:28:37,132 --> 00:28:40,262
Scene photographer for
arson investigations.

494
00:28:40,969 --> 00:28:43,469
- Huh.
- He could still have press credentials.

495
00:28:46,350 --> 00:28:49,230
We should see if he photographed
any of our crime scenes.

496
00:29:00,072 --> 00:29:02,552
All right, he's on the move.
We're trailing.

497
00:29:06,161 --> 00:29:07,331
Copy that.

498
00:29:09,498 --> 00:29:11,878
The package is traveling west
on Glenn. We've got eyes.

499
00:29:11,959 --> 00:29:13,209
All cars hang back.

500
00:29:13,627 --> 00:29:14,877
Roger, Model T.

501
00:29:15,212 --> 00:29:18,472
Tomcat, you guys stay tight behind me.
Eagle, we're on the move west.

502
00:29:18,840 --> 00:29:20,380
Roger. Circling back.

503
00:29:20,467 --> 00:29:21,757
Do not drop too low.

504
00:29:23,178 --> 00:29:25,178
Six cars and a plane
feels like overkill.

505
00:29:25,264 --> 00:29:26,974
I'm more worried about
attracting attention

506
00:29:27,057 --> 00:29:28,927
- than losing Wayne.
- We're good.

507
00:29:29,643 --> 00:29:31,440
There's no way he'd
hand out flyers to kids

508
00:29:31,460 --> 00:29:32,590
if he knew we were watching.

509
00:29:32,604 --> 00:29:34,154
I'm not so sure. He has...

510
00:29:35,774 --> 00:29:36,824
hubris.

511
00:29:37,359 --> 00:29:38,859
But other things don't add up.

512
00:29:38,900 --> 00:29:39,990
Like what?

513
00:29:40,279 --> 00:29:41,359
Family background.

514
00:29:42,447 --> 00:29:43,697
No absent father.

515
00:29:44,700 --> 00:29:47,410
No signs of a domineering
or abusive mother.

516
00:29:48,245 --> 00:29:50,655
I met an Irishman once
who only drank milk.

517
00:29:53,542 --> 00:29:54,672
Left turn on...

518
00:29:56,378 --> 00:29:58,508
Ira Street, heading south.

519
00:29:59,172 --> 00:30:00,172
Roger.

520
00:30:04,594 --> 00:30:06,514
And he's making another quick left,

521
00:30:06,596 --> 00:30:08,676
- east on Gordon.
- Roger. East on Gordon.

522
00:30:08,765 --> 00:30:11,205
We're supposed to be finding
patterns, not anomalies.

523
00:30:12,853 --> 00:30:14,903
That's a lot of cars making that turn.

524
00:30:15,731 --> 00:30:17,691
We've got eyes on the package.

525
00:30:17,774 --> 00:30:19,074
Stay back.

526
00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:20,180
- Roger.
- Jesus,

527
00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:21,480
it's like the Macy's Day Parade.

528
00:30:29,703 --> 00:30:33,003
- Do not run the light. We've got him.
- Damn it.

529
00:30:36,251 --> 00:30:38,020
Don't worry about it.
We're gonna catch up.

530
00:30:38,420 --> 00:30:41,050
Do you think that was intentional?

531
00:30:41,131 --> 00:30:43,971
Uh, yeah, we were about three
car lengths behind, but...

532
00:30:44,051 --> 00:30:45,341
I can't take that turn.

533
00:30:45,427 --> 00:30:46,467
He'll make us.

534
00:30:47,137 --> 00:30:50,097
Package is southbound on Windsor.

535
00:30:50,849 --> 00:30:52,349
Now signaling eastbound.

536
00:30:52,726 --> 00:30:54,136
We will be parallel.

537
00:30:57,105 --> 00:30:58,645
Eagle, you got eyes?

538
00:30:59,232 --> 00:31:00,572
Model T, turn south,

539
00:31:00,650 --> 00:31:02,610
- pick him up at Pryor and Bass.
- Roger.

540
00:31:06,615 --> 00:31:07,945
What is Model T?

541
00:31:10,702 --> 00:31:12,792
It's a code name for Ford.

542
00:31:15,082 --> 00:31:17,252
How about I call you Tin Lizzie?

543
00:31:29,388 --> 00:31:32,058
Package is stopped at the southeast
corner of Formwalt and Bass.

544
00:31:32,140 --> 00:31:34,060
Do not approach. Stay off the block.

545
00:31:34,142 --> 00:31:35,942
We'll advise when he's in motion.

546
00:31:36,937 --> 00:31:40,017
- What do we see as motive?
- I still think it's sexual.

547
00:31:40,857 --> 00:31:42,817
Despite him having no
history of violence

548
00:31:42,901 --> 00:31:45,071
and there being no evidence
of sexual violation.

549
00:31:45,153 --> 00:31:46,153
Yes.

550
00:31:46,238 --> 00:31:48,738
BTK's victims were not
sexually violated either.

551
00:31:49,116 --> 00:31:51,866
There was no penetration, but
we know he gets off on it.

552
00:31:53,245 --> 00:31:55,905
- Maybe Wayne's like that.
- What if it's shame?

553
00:31:55,997 --> 00:31:58,287
Shame? What makes you say that?

554
00:31:58,375 --> 00:32:02,295
He strangles his victims from
behind, so they can't see him,

555
00:32:02,754 --> 00:32:04,014
can't judge him.

556
00:32:05,924 --> 00:32:09,514
The parents seem nurturing,
but also conservative.

557
00:32:09,845 --> 00:32:12,715
Maybe not the kind who'd be
very accepting of a gay son.

558
00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:17,020
What if he hates himself
so much, and what he is,

559
00:32:18,103 --> 00:32:19,503
that he takes it out on these kids?

560
00:32:20,397 --> 00:32:23,187
Maybe specifically kids who
he thinks are hustlers.

561
00:32:23,275 --> 00:32:25,735
I don't get the sense that
he hates himself at all.

562
00:32:25,819 --> 00:32:28,279
I think he's a narcissist who
considers himself smarter

563
00:32:28,363 --> 00:32:30,243
than every other person in the room.

564
00:32:30,907 --> 00:32:31,907
You know the type.

565
00:32:33,201 --> 00:32:35,081
He's heading out now.

566
00:32:36,455 --> 00:32:39,575
Package moving east on Bass,
he's gonna drive right past us.

567
00:32:49,426 --> 00:32:51,426
- What's he doing?
- What the fuck?

568
00:33:06,443 --> 00:33:07,993
Thought y'all might be hungry.

569
00:33:13,742 --> 00:33:15,412
Scorpion, he handed them something.

570
00:33:15,494 --> 00:33:17,164
I... I don't know what it is.

571
00:33:24,002 --> 00:33:25,302
I think we've been made.

572
00:33:25,962 --> 00:33:27,422
I bet you he got the $2.99 special.

573
00:33:27,506 --> 00:33:30,466
You can't beat that. You get
two fried chicken and fries.

574
00:33:35,096 --> 00:33:37,556
Uh, yeah, he's reentered the vehicle

575
00:33:37,641 --> 00:33:40,021
and, uh, is en route.

576
00:33:40,101 --> 00:33:41,901
You should have eyes on
him in about 30 seconds.

577
00:33:41,978 --> 00:33:42,978
Ten-four.

578
00:33:49,611 --> 00:33:52,161
Guess who photographed the
Sigman Road crime scene?

579
00:33:52,531 --> 00:33:54,161
Who is Wayne B. Williams?

580
00:33:56,785 --> 00:33:58,995
Now that we're blown, this
seems like a waste of time.

581
00:33:59,079 --> 00:34:02,749
Then we bumper-lock him. People
under pressure make mistakes.

582
00:34:02,832 --> 00:34:05,792
And if a body turns up while
we're on him, we rule him out.

583
00:34:06,878 --> 00:34:08,258
Whose car is this?

584
00:34:09,464 --> 00:34:10,474
This your car?

585
00:34:10,540 --> 00:34:11,980
No, but I'd be happy to move it for you.

586
00:34:12,010 --> 00:34:13,030
And I'm late for work.

587
00:34:13,051 --> 00:34:16,261
Y'all blocking the whole neighborhood.
Fucking Wayne, man.

588
00:34:16,346 --> 00:34:18,426
- How do you know it was about Wayne?
- Of course it's about Wayne.

589
00:34:18,515 --> 00:34:20,225
He always up to some bullshit.

590
00:34:20,308 --> 00:34:23,228
Fucking FCC come out here one time,
shut down his radio station.

591
00:34:23,311 --> 00:34:25,811
Coming and going all hours.
You gonna move it?

592
00:34:25,897 --> 00:34:27,857
- Wayne keeps his neighbors up?
- Spoiled rotten.

593
00:34:27,941 --> 00:34:29,941
That's his real goddamn problem. I work.

594
00:34:30,026 --> 00:34:31,816
Something he don't know shit about.

595
00:34:31,903 --> 00:34:34,283
Keeping me awake fucking burning trash.

596
00:34:35,657 --> 00:34:38,697
- You saw Wayne burning garbage?
- Five o'clock in the morning.

597
00:34:38,994 --> 00:34:41,504
- You sure it was garbage?
- I don't know. It was on fire.

598
00:34:41,580 --> 00:34:43,710
- When was this?
- Thursday morning.

599
00:34:44,165 --> 00:34:45,285
Thursday? You're certain?

600
00:34:45,375 --> 00:34:47,535
I work night shift Wednesdays. You mind?

601
00:34:51,715 --> 00:34:53,085
You don't know what he was burnin'.

602
00:34:53,466 --> 00:34:55,586
You want a warrant, bring
me physical evidence.

603
00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:56,610
If we wait any longer,

604
00:34:56,630 --> 00:34:58,465
all your physical evidence
will go up in smoke.

605
00:34:58,550 --> 00:35:00,100
Let us search for fibers
and question him.

606
00:35:00,130 --> 00:35:01,595
Wayne is fascinated by these crimes.

607
00:35:01,683 --> 00:35:02,893
If we bring him in, he'll talk to us.

608
00:35:02,976 --> 00:35:05,096
If he doesn't, we let him out
the back, no one is the wiser.

609
00:35:05,186 --> 00:35:06,646
No harm, no foul.

610
00:35:06,730 --> 00:35:09,200
Sir, I appreciate the extreme pressure

611
00:35:09,230 --> 00:35:10,500
you're under from Mayor Jackson

612
00:35:10,525 --> 00:35:13,355
- and your constituents to end this.
- Oh, you do, do you?

613
00:35:22,078 --> 00:35:24,328
We need fibers from the
car, the whole house.

614
00:35:24,748 --> 00:35:26,668
Especially the green
carpet in the living room.

615
00:35:26,750 --> 00:35:27,770
Yes, sir.

616
00:35:35,300 --> 00:35:36,300
Shit.

617
00:35:48,563 --> 00:35:50,153
I want hair from that dog.

618
00:35:58,740 --> 00:35:59,870
Got anything?

619
00:36:08,458 --> 00:36:09,458
Peterson.

620
00:36:09,709 --> 00:36:11,959
It's not much, but it is green.

621
00:36:51,334 --> 00:36:53,924
We got fibers from his bedroom
that could be a match.

622
00:36:54,212 --> 00:36:56,092
Won't know until the labs come back.

623
00:36:56,548 --> 00:36:59,378
They're still working on
the car. How's he been?

624
00:36:59,467 --> 00:37:01,717
I think plucking his
pubes has him rattled.

625
00:37:01,803 --> 00:37:03,223
But he's still so arrogant:

626
00:37:03,513 --> 00:37:06,223
declined a lawyer and
consented to a polygraph.

627
00:37:06,307 --> 00:37:07,427
Arrogant and prepared.

628
00:37:08,977 --> 00:37:11,397
Find one called How to Abduct
and Murder Young Boys,

629
00:37:11,730 --> 00:37:12,980
and we can all go home.

630
00:37:13,523 --> 00:37:14,613
You ready?

631
00:37:39,880 --> 00:37:40,931
Commissioner Brown.

632
00:37:40,950 --> 00:37:42,219
- Agent.
- DA Slaton.

633
00:37:43,303 --> 00:37:45,603
Y'all have the clothes off my back.

634
00:37:45,847 --> 00:37:47,927
What else can I do for you?

635
00:37:48,475 --> 00:37:51,845
I'd like to talk about May 21st.

636
00:37:52,270 --> 00:37:54,900
Could you talk us through your day
up to the Jackson Parkway Bridge?

637
00:37:54,981 --> 00:37:56,941
I already told you, twice.

638
00:37:57,942 --> 00:37:59,362
We'd like to hear it again.

639
00:38:00,987 --> 00:38:03,777
I played ball, then I went home.

640
00:38:04,400 --> 00:38:05,620
And then what?

641
00:38:05,670 --> 00:38:07,077
My momma said a lady called.

642
00:38:07,160 --> 00:38:08,540
- Cheryl Johnson.
- Yeah.

643
00:38:08,620 --> 00:38:10,420
But like I said, I never spoke with her,

644
00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:12,080
so she may have been a prank call.

645
00:38:12,165 --> 00:38:14,705
After you got the message
from your mom, what then?

646
00:38:14,793 --> 00:38:17,713
Uh... I ate dinner. I worked some.

647
00:38:18,020 --> 00:38:19,094
That's it.

648
00:38:19,172 --> 00:38:22,182
You told us before you picked
up a check at Hotlanta Records.

649
00:38:22,592 --> 00:38:25,262
That's right. Then I went
looking for Ms. Johnson.

650
00:38:26,554 --> 00:38:28,234
What about the Sans Souci Lounge?

651
00:38:29,432 --> 00:38:31,982
You told me after Hotlanta
you went to the Sans Souci.

652
00:38:33,812 --> 00:38:35,562
Yeah, I did.

653
00:38:35,647 --> 00:38:37,857
We checked, and no one remembers you.

654
00:38:37,941 --> 00:38:39,401
Were you there or not?

655
00:38:39,484 --> 00:38:41,034
I was, but not for long.

656
00:38:41,110 --> 00:38:42,450
So you just lied to us?

657
00:38:42,529 --> 00:38:43,779
Or you lied before?

658
00:38:43,863 --> 00:38:45,453
I wasn't lying. People forget things.

659
00:38:45,532 --> 00:38:47,952
I'd be real careful not
to forget things, Wayne,

660
00:38:48,243 --> 00:38:49,243
for your sake.

661
00:38:49,869 --> 00:38:51,509
So that brings us to the bridge.

662
00:38:52,580 --> 00:38:54,370
What did you do after you left us?

663
00:38:54,999 --> 00:38:56,169
Drove home.

664
00:38:56,251 --> 00:38:58,251
You didn't continue looking
for Cheryl Johnson?

665
00:38:58,336 --> 00:39:00,256
I thought that was the whole
reason for going out.

666
00:39:00,338 --> 00:39:02,798
I guess being questioned by
feds spooked me a little.

667
00:39:02,880 --> 00:39:05,210
Did you happen to do any
barbecuing when you got home?

668
00:39:05,240 --> 00:39:06,260
Why would I?

669
00:39:06,280 --> 00:39:07,988
We heard you were burning
things late that night.

670
00:39:08,388 --> 00:39:09,388
Not me.

671
00:39:10,306 --> 00:39:12,176
- I went to bed.
- You didn't clean your car?

672
00:39:12,267 --> 00:39:15,097
When we visited the next
morning, your car was very tidy.

673
00:39:15,186 --> 00:39:17,186
No rope, no clothes.

674
00:39:17,522 --> 00:39:19,442
- Um, I guess my father must've...
- Do you happen to know

675
00:39:19,524 --> 00:39:20,824
where that rope is?

676
00:39:21,776 --> 00:39:23,986
Your father's owned a lot
of cars over the years.

677
00:39:24,904 --> 00:39:28,124
Is it true he owned a
blue 1978 Plymouth Fury?

678
00:39:28,783 --> 00:39:29,873
That a crime?

679
00:39:29,951 --> 00:39:32,951
You know who else drives
1978 Plymouth Furies?

680
00:39:34,247 --> 00:39:35,667
Atlanta PD.

681
00:39:35,740 --> 00:39:36,880
So... ?

682
00:39:36,910 --> 00:39:38,588
So that would make it pretty convincing,

683
00:39:38,668 --> 00:39:41,458
for a guy who likes to
impersonate police officers,

684
00:39:41,546 --> 00:39:42,756
to lure a kid into his car.

685
00:39:43,214 --> 00:39:44,344
I never did that.

686
00:39:44,424 --> 00:39:46,094
You did impersonate an officer.

687
00:39:46,426 --> 00:39:48,546
I carry a scanner for
my photography work

688
00:39:48,636 --> 00:39:50,966
so that I can get to the scene
before other stringers.

689
00:39:51,055 --> 00:39:52,095
What interests me...

690
00:39:52,682 --> 00:39:54,932
is they also found a
police light in your car.

691
00:39:55,018 --> 00:39:57,308
It helps me get access. Sometimes
you gotta hustle a little.

692
00:39:57,600 --> 00:40:01,100
But maybe, if you wanted to intimidate

693
00:40:01,130 --> 00:40:03,660
or gain the confidence of a stranger,

694
00:40:03,943 --> 00:40:05,823
putting a bubble light on
your car might do that.

695
00:40:06,029 --> 00:40:08,069
No. No, I don't do that.

696
00:40:08,156 --> 00:40:11,696
But you know who might? A cop.
Kids'll go off with a real cop.

697
00:40:12,160 --> 00:40:13,410
You checkin' into them?

698
00:40:18,541 --> 00:40:22,091
We have a witness who saw Jo-Jo
Bell get into a white station wagon

699
00:40:22,170 --> 00:40:24,050
on the afternoon of March 2nd.

700
00:40:24,710 --> 00:40:26,080
The description of the driver

701
00:40:26,110 --> 00:40:28,344
was a match for a man seen
talking to Lubie Geter

702
00:40:28,426 --> 00:40:29,756
the day he disappeared.

703
00:40:34,766 --> 00:40:35,766
He look familiar to you?

704
00:40:38,686 --> 00:40:40,356
What about...

705
00:40:42,023 --> 00:40:43,153
Patrick Rogers?

706
00:40:43,524 --> 00:40:46,074
He loved music. Wanted
to make it as a singer.

707
00:40:47,320 --> 00:40:50,110
You ever hand him a flyer,
invite him to your studio?

708
00:40:50,573 --> 00:40:53,333
Uh-uh. I don't know no Patrick.

709
00:40:53,701 --> 00:40:57,291
He went by "Pat-Man." Wrote a
song called "Runnin' Girl."

710
00:40:57,830 --> 00:40:59,250
Maybe you remember now.

711
00:40:59,332 --> 00:41:00,332
No.

712
00:41:01,709 --> 00:41:03,539
I don't know. I meet kids every day.

713
00:41:03,878 --> 00:41:05,168
That don't mean I killed nobody.

714
00:41:05,254 --> 00:41:09,250
You ever hand out flyers at...
Moreland Plaza Shopping Center?

715
00:41:09,270 --> 00:41:10,300
Sometimes.

716
00:41:10,343 --> 00:41:12,893
That's where Aaron Jackson and
Patrick both carried groceries.

717
00:41:12,971 --> 00:41:15,891
And funny thing, they knew
kids from other parking lots:

718
00:41:16,265 --> 00:41:18,175
Lubie Geter, Charles Stephens.

719
00:41:18,267 --> 00:41:20,267
They worked the Lakewood Shopping Plaza.

720
00:41:20,979 --> 00:41:22,269
Ever go there, Wayne?

721
00:41:22,522 --> 00:41:24,112
Me and a thousand other people.

722
00:41:24,190 --> 00:41:25,820
But you were working, right?

723
00:41:26,693 --> 00:41:30,283
Handing out these flyers to
kids trying to make a buck.

724
00:41:30,360 --> 00:41:33,140
The bottom line is, nobody
has ever seen Wayne Williams

725
00:41:33,170 --> 00:41:34,453
strike another person,

726
00:41:34,534 --> 00:41:36,834
strangle another person,
or hurt anybody,

727
00:41:36,911 --> 00:41:37,911
because I haven't.

728
00:41:39,706 --> 00:41:41,366
How did you know Nathaniel Cater?

729
00:41:41,874 --> 00:41:43,634
I don't know who that is.

730
00:41:44,168 --> 00:41:46,608
Cater's body was dragged
from the Chattahoochee River

731
00:41:47,755 --> 00:41:49,625
just downstream from
where we stopped you.

732
00:41:53,094 --> 00:41:55,684
- That doesn't bother you?
- Why would it? I don't know him.

733
00:41:55,763 --> 00:41:57,515
You've never met Nathaniel Cater?

734
00:41:57,550 --> 00:41:59,273
You asking if I killed him?

735
00:41:59,350 --> 00:42:01,020
Look at me, I'm five-seven, man.

736
00:42:01,102 --> 00:42:02,902
How the hell am I gonna
kill a grown man,

737
00:42:02,979 --> 00:42:05,359
drag him out of my car, and
throw him off of a bridge?

738
00:42:05,440 --> 00:42:08,610
Toxicology reports suggest Cater
was intoxicated at the time.

739
00:42:09,068 --> 00:42:10,358
Much easier to kill a drunk man.

740
00:42:10,445 --> 00:42:12,815
The body showed signs of strangulation

741
00:42:12,905 --> 00:42:14,655
but no vertebral damage.

742
00:42:15,825 --> 00:42:18,195
So maybe the killer wasn't
particularly strong...

743
00:42:18,578 --> 00:42:19,788
or couldn't follow through.

744
00:42:20,705 --> 00:42:22,325
It's hard to strangle someone.

745
00:42:22,749 --> 00:42:25,169
When you were choking
Cater, did you panic?

746
00:42:27,378 --> 00:42:29,628
- No.
- No, you didn't panic?

747
00:42:29,714 --> 00:42:31,594
No, I didn't kill nobody.

748
00:42:33,176 --> 00:42:36,256
Cater hustled at some of
the gay clubs downtown.

749
00:42:36,345 --> 00:42:37,465
He your boyfriend?

750
00:42:39,265 --> 00:42:40,805
I am not homosexual.

751
00:42:43,180 --> 00:42:45,200
Know what I call a child talent scout

752
00:42:45,220 --> 00:42:48,000
who makes no music and no money, Wayne?

753
00:42:48,733 --> 00:42:49,823
A fuckin' pedophile.

754
00:42:56,574 --> 00:42:57,994
Let's go further back.

755
00:43:00,953 --> 00:43:03,583
- Where were you May 11th?
- I don't know.

756
00:43:03,664 --> 00:43:04,664
Think.

757
00:43:05,625 --> 00:43:07,125
I guess I was at home.

758
00:43:07,210 --> 00:43:08,670
- Was anybody with you?
- No.

759
00:43:08,753 --> 00:43:09,883
So on May 11th,

760
00:43:09,962 --> 00:43:12,086
when William Barrett was
being strangled to death,

761
00:43:12,110 --> 00:43:13,180
you were home alone.

762
00:43:16,886 --> 00:43:19,716
April 22nd: Jimmy Ray Payne
went out to sell coins.

763
00:43:19,806 --> 00:43:22,766
His body was found in the Chattahoochee
not far from where we met.

764
00:43:22,850 --> 00:43:24,480
Where were you on April 22nd?

765
00:43:24,560 --> 00:43:25,810
Is that a Wednesday?

766
00:43:25,978 --> 00:43:29,518
- Uh... guess I was out.
- Out where?

767
00:43:29,607 --> 00:43:31,317
Working. Driving.

768
00:43:31,400 --> 00:43:33,320
- Was anyone with you?
- I doubt it.

769
00:43:33,402 --> 00:43:34,612
Okay, moving on.

770
00:43:34,987 --> 00:43:37,737
March 30th: Larry Rogers went missing.

771
00:43:37,824 --> 00:43:39,704
He was found a week later, strangled.

772
00:43:39,784 --> 00:43:42,374
On his body, we found
carpet fibers and dog hair.

773
00:43:43,704 --> 00:43:45,714
We're taking fiber samples
from your home right now

774
00:43:45,790 --> 00:43:47,420
and hair samples from Sheba.

775
00:43:47,500 --> 00:43:48,840
Anything you want to tell us?

776
00:43:50,336 --> 00:43:52,586
Where were you on the afternoon
of March 30th, Wayne?

777
00:43:53,256 --> 00:43:55,876
And if it helps you
remember, it was raining.

778
00:43:56,342 --> 00:43:59,182
If it's raining, uh,
probably watchin' TV.

779
00:43:59,387 --> 00:44:01,097
Or maybe I'm playin' solitaire.

780
00:44:01,180 --> 00:44:02,640
Can anyone corroborate that?

781
00:44:03,933 --> 00:44:05,483
Corroborate solitaire?

782
00:44:06,970 --> 00:44:08,360
March 20th, Eddie Duncan...

783
00:44:08,380 --> 00:44:09,728
We gonna do this for all of 'em?

784
00:44:09,814 --> 00:44:11,774
Unless there's something
else you'd like to share?

785
00:44:13,860 --> 00:44:16,570
Y'all think Wayne Williams
murdered all those kids?

786
00:44:16,800 --> 00:44:17,859
Prove it.

787
00:44:18,281 --> 00:44:20,031
Or I think I'll be going home.

788
00:44:20,825 --> 00:44:22,235
It's a murder charge, gentlemen,

789
00:44:22,320 --> 00:44:24,620
and you can't conclusively
tie him to a single victim,

790
00:44:24,640 --> 00:44:25,826
whether alive or dead.

791
00:44:25,913 --> 00:44:28,713
The only thing you've got
is a possible fiber match,

792
00:44:28,791 --> 00:44:30,751
which no grand jury in
Georgia is gonna consider

793
00:44:30,835 --> 00:44:32,205
more than circumstantial, at best.

794
00:44:32,295 --> 00:44:34,455
- That's not enough to arrest him.
- He had no alibi.

795
00:44:34,547 --> 00:44:37,627
We went through 28 dates, not
a single verifiable alibi.

796
00:44:37,710 --> 00:44:39,560
Who can remember what they
were doing two weeks ago,

797
00:44:39,590 --> 00:44:41,347
much less 14 months?

798
00:44:41,721 --> 00:44:45,351
I've got attorneys from DOJ and
the governor pressuring me.

799
00:44:46,058 --> 00:44:49,148
But the man's polygraph was as
inconclusive as your interview.

800
00:44:49,896 --> 00:44:52,606
He flatlined three times.
That indicates deceptive.

801
00:44:52,690 --> 00:44:54,820
Wayne didn't react
differently to anything.

802
00:44:54,901 --> 00:44:56,401
Only sociopaths do that.

803
00:44:59,447 --> 00:45:01,817
As for our efforts this evening,

804
00:45:02,116 --> 00:45:04,616
we've not obtained the
necessary information

805
00:45:04,702 --> 00:45:07,332
to charge or make an arrest,

806
00:45:07,413 --> 00:45:10,253
so we will not be releasing
the name of this individual.

807
00:45:10,666 --> 00:45:12,126
We still have no suspect.

808
00:45:12,752 --> 00:45:15,842
But we are always doing
more than the public knows,

809
00:45:16,339 --> 00:45:18,299
but I cannot comment

810
00:45:18,382 --> 00:45:21,512
on any ongoing investigation
we may be conducting.

811
00:45:23,721 --> 00:45:27,141
We are doing our best to bring an
end to this prolonged tragedy.

812
00:45:27,225 --> 00:45:29,845
Wayne! Get over here. Let's go.

813
00:45:29,936 --> 00:45:32,096
If there are any developments,
we'll keep you apprised.

814
00:45:54,001 --> 00:45:55,251
Mr. Brown!

815
00:46:15,106 --> 00:46:16,436
I brought you your paper.

816
00:46:17,692 --> 00:46:18,692
Thanks.

817
00:46:20,361 --> 00:46:21,701
Don't you want to read it?

818
00:46:23,920 --> 00:46:24,960
Oh, no.

819
00:46:24,990 --> 00:46:26,540
They printed the man's name and address.

820
00:46:26,575 --> 00:46:27,735
Somebody leaked this.

821
00:46:29,036 --> 00:46:30,286
This is your guy?

822
00:46:30,538 --> 00:46:32,288
- Is this him?
- We believe so.

823
00:46:32,373 --> 00:46:33,833
Because he doesn't look like...

824
00:46:33,916 --> 00:46:35,206
He doesn't look like
he could hurt anybody.

825
00:46:35,293 --> 00:46:37,133
- What he looks does not...
- They said he was smart,

826
00:46:37,211 --> 00:46:39,011
he had his own radio station,
owned his own business.

827
00:46:39,088 --> 00:46:42,168
I know it seems unlikely, but he
fits every aspect of the profile.

828
00:46:43,592 --> 00:46:44,802
What does that mean?

829
00:46:46,262 --> 00:46:49,432
We're very certain it was a black
male, early 20s to early 30s,

830
00:46:49,515 --> 00:46:51,765
- drives a certain type of car.
- That's it?

831
00:46:52,852 --> 00:46:55,772
That's what every cop in Atlanta
looks for, for every crime.

832
00:46:55,850 --> 00:46:56,900
A young black man.

833
00:46:56,930 --> 00:46:58,185
It's a little more
complicated than that.

834
00:46:58,274 --> 00:47:01,444
Did you investigate the man who
called saying where to find a body?

835
00:47:01,527 --> 00:47:03,697
Tanya, those calls were made
by sad people looking for...

836
00:47:03,779 --> 00:47:05,029
There was more than one?

837
00:47:05,114 --> 00:47:07,204
- Well...
- Well, did you ask them?

838
00:47:07,408 --> 00:47:10,408
Did you even bother to look at
the men who go out every day

839
00:47:10,494 --> 00:47:11,874
looking for young boys?

840
00:47:11,954 --> 00:47:15,374
Men these boys might have known?
Might have gotten into their car?

841
00:47:24,717 --> 00:47:26,757
- Tanya, this guy...
- "Fits."

842
00:47:27,511 --> 00:47:29,931
If you're so sure he fits, how
come you haven't arrested him?

843
00:47:30,630 --> 00:47:32,120
Because this is going to ruin his life.

844
00:47:32,140 --> 00:47:33,599
There are procedures.

845
00:47:33,684 --> 00:47:36,274
I'm not saying,
unequivocally, he did all 29,

846
00:47:36,354 --> 00:47:38,524
- but I know he did some of them.
- What if you're wrong?

847
00:47:38,606 --> 00:47:40,476
- I'm not.
- Because he's black?

848
00:47:40,560 --> 00:47:41,940
Because he drives some kind of car?

849
00:47:41,960 --> 00:47:43,566
Would you like to come inside?

850
00:47:43,944 --> 00:47:45,324
No, I would not.

851
00:47:45,571 --> 00:47:47,281
But I should congratulate
you, Agent Ford.

852
00:47:47,448 --> 00:47:49,948
I guess y'all came here to find
a brother to fit the bill,

853
00:47:50,034 --> 00:47:51,334
and find one, you did.

854
00:47:56,200 --> 00:47:57,820
There were reporters everywhere.

855
00:47:57,850 --> 00:47:59,457
Remember, they got the plumber's name.

856
00:47:59,543 --> 00:48:01,963
But they didn't call him
the "Atlanta Monster."

857
00:48:02,046 --> 00:48:04,756
Somebody leaked it. For a reason.

858
00:48:05,091 --> 00:48:06,801
It'll definitely make him sweat.

859
00:48:07,551 --> 00:48:08,841
Fuck me.

860
00:48:33,744 --> 00:48:36,214
- How many times has he peeked out?
- A few.

861
00:48:36,747 --> 00:48:37,827
Countin' the cameras.

862
00:48:37,915 --> 00:48:40,665
We're not gonna see much more
of him until this dies down.

863
00:48:41,544 --> 00:48:44,344
Station said we had a walk-in
this morning, young guy.

864
00:48:44,630 --> 00:48:47,550
The tip lines have been flooded.
Suddenly everybody's seen Wayne,

865
00:48:47,633 --> 00:48:50,593
they all got something to tell, long
as they're in line for a reward.

866
00:48:50,678 --> 00:48:52,638
But this guy may be worth our time.

867
00:48:53,222 --> 00:48:54,392
Let's go talk to him.

868
00:48:54,890 --> 00:48:55,890
Morning.

869
00:48:56,767 --> 00:48:57,767
Y'all ready?

870
00:48:58,519 --> 00:48:59,979
Here's a copy of my résumé.

871
00:49:00,396 --> 00:49:01,686
Everybody take one.

872
00:49:02,100 --> 00:49:03,890
The rules are nobody shows my face.

873
00:49:03,910 --> 00:49:05,310
If y'all agree to that, come on in.

874
00:49:06,110 --> 00:49:08,990
Our Renaissance man knows how
to get in front of a story.

875
00:49:09,071 --> 00:49:10,071
Let's, uh...

876
00:49:17,246 --> 00:49:18,866
Did you kill those children, Wayne?

877
00:49:19,165 --> 00:49:20,665
No, I did not.

878
00:49:20,749 --> 00:49:22,629
Then why are you a suspect?

879
00:49:23,160 --> 00:49:24,600
I got stopped by the FBI

880
00:49:24,630 --> 00:49:26,839
at the James Jackson Parkway Bridge.

881
00:49:26,922 --> 00:49:28,592
They asked me what I'd
dropped in the river.

882
00:49:28,674 --> 00:49:30,344
I said, "Nothing."

883
00:49:30,420 --> 00:49:32,500
Ever since then, they've
been following me.

884
00:49:32,520 --> 00:49:33,600
For no reason?

885
00:49:33,630 --> 00:49:34,850
Oh, they got their reasons.

886
00:49:34,930 --> 00:49:36,810
They're desperate to pin
these murders on someone,

887
00:49:36,891 --> 00:49:38,981
and they know damn well if
they arrest a white man,

888
00:49:39,059 --> 00:49:40,639
this city will burn.

889
00:49:40,728 --> 00:49:42,228
What do you want, Mr. Williams?

890
00:49:42,313 --> 00:49:43,443
To be left alone.

891
00:49:43,520 --> 00:49:45,560
And an apology from those FBI agents

892
00:49:45,590 --> 00:49:48,033
who spent last night threatening
me and accusing me.

893
00:49:48,110 --> 00:49:50,400
- I think he's referring to you.
- Or you.

894
00:49:50,488 --> 00:49:51,500
Did you know any of the victims?

895
00:49:51,520 --> 00:49:52,565
No, sir.

896
00:49:52,656 --> 00:49:55,196
Do you want to say anything to
the families of the victims?

897
00:49:55,284 --> 00:49:57,084
Well, I work with children so I know

898
00:49:57,160 --> 00:49:58,620
some of these kids are in places

899
00:49:58,650 --> 00:50:00,251
they don't have no business being in.

900
00:50:00,331 --> 00:50:03,211
Got no supervision. They're
just runnin' the streets.

901
00:50:03,292 --> 00:50:04,672
And I'm saying, while
you're doing that...

902
00:50:04,752 --> 00:50:07,002
that's not giving anyone
a license to kill...

903
00:50:07,087 --> 00:50:10,297
but you open yourself up to all
types of things. Bad things.

904
00:50:10,382 --> 00:50:13,512
Mr. Williams, did the FBI ask
you to take a polygraph test?

905
00:50:13,590 --> 00:50:15,720
Yes. And I did so voluntarily.

906
00:50:15,750 --> 00:50:16,934
It was considered inconclusive.

907
00:50:17,014 --> 00:50:19,854
What suspected murderer risks
holding a press conference

908
00:50:19,934 --> 00:50:21,274
with no lawyer and no preparation?

909
00:50:21,352 --> 00:50:23,022
Someone who's certain
he'll never be caught.

910
00:50:23,103 --> 00:50:25,303
Or someone who's really pissed
of being wrongly accused.

911
00:50:27,399 --> 00:50:28,529
Let's go talk to your pigeon.

912
00:50:28,609 --> 00:50:30,859
When I said I didn't,
they called me a liar.

913
00:50:31,320 --> 00:50:33,240
You said you know Wayne Williams?

914
00:50:33,322 --> 00:50:35,072
Yeah. Me and Wayne play ball together.

915
00:50:35,824 --> 00:50:37,584
Sometimes we do music on the side.

916
00:50:38,786 --> 00:50:40,406
If I tell y'all what I
know, and y'all use it,

917
00:50:40,496 --> 00:50:41,706
I get that reward, right?

918
00:50:41,789 --> 00:50:44,379
Let's chat for a while, then see
if I need to call the mayor.

919
00:50:44,458 --> 00:50:45,470
Okay.

920
00:50:45,501 --> 00:50:48,131
So, Mr. Marcus, what can you tell us?

921
00:50:48,212 --> 00:50:50,762
Well, you see, Wayne ain't
like you always see him.

922
00:50:51,173 --> 00:50:52,593
- He's a Gemini.
- His horoscope?

923
00:50:53,008 --> 00:50:54,218
Yeah, you know, like, the twins.

924
00:50:54,301 --> 00:50:56,101
Except with Wayne, you never
know which one you're gonna get.

925
00:50:56,178 --> 00:50:58,558
- And one is worse than the other?
- Oh, yeah.

926
00:50:58,639 --> 00:51:01,889
He can get angry sometimes. He
doesn't look like it, but he can.

927
00:51:01,976 --> 00:51:03,226
What does Wayne get angry about?

928
00:51:03,310 --> 00:51:04,900
A while back, some folks came around

929
00:51:04,979 --> 00:51:07,939
looking for donations, you know,
to help find those missing kids.

930
00:51:08,482 --> 00:51:10,652
- Well, I was gonna put something in...
- Very generous.

931
00:51:10,734 --> 00:51:12,824
Well, yeah, but Wayne told
me don't waste the money.

932
00:51:13,571 --> 00:51:16,071
He said those dead kids were
nothing but a bunch of prostitutes

933
00:51:16,156 --> 00:51:17,946
hanging around the
streets all night long.

934
00:51:17,980 --> 00:51:19,340
He called the victims prostitutes?

935
00:51:19,390 --> 00:51:20,803
He acted like it was a good thing.

936
00:51:21,203 --> 00:51:23,543
Said that they were drop shots
and giving us a bad name.

937
00:51:24,081 --> 00:51:26,081
Said we work so hard, but
we can't get nothing done.

938
00:51:26,166 --> 00:51:27,376
What's a drop shot?

939
00:51:27,459 --> 00:51:29,499
Anybody who ain't worth much of nothing.

940
00:51:29,587 --> 00:51:32,337
You just shoot 'em,
drop 'em, get 'em gone.

941
00:51:33,132 --> 00:51:34,682
Could go to motive.

942
00:51:34,758 --> 00:51:36,798
Like he was cleaning up the streets.

943
00:51:37,636 --> 00:51:38,926
Or it's more personal.

944
00:51:40,347 --> 00:51:43,807
Wayne's parents have him late,
give him everything to succeed.

945
00:51:44,852 --> 00:51:48,812
He works hard at school, he's
smart, runs his own radio station.

946
00:51:48,897 --> 00:51:50,147
The next Berry Gordy.

947
00:51:50,441 --> 00:51:51,441
Who?

948
00:51:52,401 --> 00:51:54,401
- Never mind.
- But everything dries up.

949
00:51:54,486 --> 00:51:57,486
Radio station gets closed down,
he drops out of college.

950
00:51:57,573 --> 00:51:59,533
Wayne never reaches his full potential.

951
00:52:00,075 --> 00:52:01,155
Why?

952
00:52:01,744 --> 00:52:03,164
He believes it's because he's seen

953
00:52:03,245 --> 00:52:04,745
as just another black kid.

954
00:52:05,205 --> 00:52:08,285
It's a box he can't get out of.
So who does he take it out on?

955
00:52:08,584 --> 00:52:09,674
Poor black kids.

956
00:52:09,752 --> 00:52:11,422
He's trying to regain control.

957
00:52:11,503 --> 00:52:13,133
Like Berkowitz, Kemper.

958
00:52:13,213 --> 00:52:15,553
Men plagued by inadequacy and failure.

959
00:52:15,960 --> 00:52:17,680
Williams isn't ashamed of his sexuality,

960
00:52:17,700 --> 00:52:19,846
he's ashamed of his failure to achieve.

961
00:52:20,137 --> 00:52:23,097
That's why he talks himself up.
That's why he exaggerates.

962
00:52:23,599 --> 00:52:24,929
Maybe that's why he kills.

963
00:52:26,602 --> 00:52:28,442
Plays to your narcissist angle.

964
00:52:29,021 --> 00:52:32,071
But even if Mr. Civic Duty
is telling the truth,

965
00:52:32,566 --> 00:52:34,186
there's nothing material there.

966
00:52:34,610 --> 00:52:36,860
It's not evidence, Holden.
It's a theory.

967
00:52:36,940 --> 00:52:38,700
And we know we're not
getting an arrest warrant

968
00:52:38,720 --> 00:52:40,195
based on "psychology."

969
00:52:40,282 --> 00:52:42,282
Now that Wayne's a sideshow,
he can't even jaywalk

970
00:52:42,368 --> 00:52:43,988
without being on the nightly news.

971
00:52:44,078 --> 00:52:46,538
The likelihood of him snatching
another victim is zero.

972
00:52:47,665 --> 00:52:48,785
Disappointed?

973
00:52:49,541 --> 00:52:53,211
I'm going to the hotel. Have a
drink, call my wife. You coming?

974
00:52:54,421 --> 00:52:57,131
Yeah.

975
00:52:57,216 --> 00:52:58,966
There are federal guidelines
regarding our jur...

976
00:52:59,050 --> 00:53:00,420
Maybe you can be one of us.

977
00:53:00,450 --> 00:53:02,620
- Go back.
- The few, the proud...

978
00:53:02,650 --> 00:53:04,471
We simply had to get involved.

979
00:53:04,765 --> 00:53:07,595
The Bureau's been in Atlanta
for several months now.

980
00:53:08,102 --> 00:53:11,062
How has a federal presence
affected the investigation?

981
00:53:11,146 --> 00:53:14,646
Our agents augment the efforts of
the task force in individual cases,

982
00:53:14,900 --> 00:53:17,070
and we've made progress
in our own investigations

983
00:53:17,152 --> 00:53:19,112
into many of the crimes
that we believe are linked.

984
00:53:19,190 --> 00:53:20,400
With regards to arrests,

985
00:53:20,430 --> 00:53:22,486
the sum total during the
investigation so far

986
00:53:22,574 --> 00:53:23,584
has been zero.

987
00:53:23,909 --> 00:53:27,579
And the press is consistently
told there are no suspects.

988
00:53:27,663 --> 00:53:30,673
Can you be specific on the
progress you've made?

989
00:53:30,749 --> 00:53:32,669
- I believe it's significant.
- What's he doing?

990
00:53:32,751 --> 00:53:34,687
I am quietly confident that
an arrest is imminent.

991
00:53:35,080 --> 00:53:36,900
- Putting us on a deadline.
- You have a suspect?

992
00:53:37,172 --> 00:53:39,172
I'm not going to give
details at this time,

993
00:53:39,258 --> 00:53:41,468
but we should have
some information soon.

994
00:53:41,552 --> 00:53:43,682
Twenty-three-year-old Wayne Williams,

995
00:53:43,762 --> 00:53:46,312
a talent agent and music promoter.

996
00:53:46,390 --> 00:53:50,270
While law enforcement has said
only that there will be no arrest,

997
00:53:50,352 --> 00:53:53,232
Williams gave reporters a glimpse...

998
00:54:56,126 --> 00:54:57,706
Has he left the house today?

999
00:54:57,720 --> 00:54:58,730
Not Wayne.

1000
00:54:58,754 --> 00:55:00,924
Homer came out and took
photographs of the photographers.

1001
00:55:01,006 --> 00:55:03,336
You see Webster on NewsHour?

1002
00:55:04,051 --> 00:55:05,551
Think Slaton's changed his mind?

1003
00:55:05,636 --> 00:55:08,056
I think somebody's making
it clear they want him to.

1004
00:55:08,138 --> 00:55:09,138
Any news from the lab?

1005
00:55:09,223 --> 00:55:12,733
Peterson's matched carpet fibers
from his bedroom to 14 victims.

1006
00:55:13,018 --> 00:55:14,018
The dog hair to five.

1007
00:55:14,686 --> 00:55:17,896
Shame the DA doesn't care for all
that scientific mumbo jumbo.

1008
00:55:19,983 --> 00:55:22,193
- Mr. Williams!
- Mr. Williams! Come on!

1009
00:55:22,210 --> 00:55:23,240
Give me a picture!

1010
00:55:47,219 --> 00:55:49,389
I've been here all night.
You want this one?

1011
00:55:49,471 --> 00:55:50,471
Sure.

1012
00:56:17,249 --> 00:56:18,249
Officer!

1013
00:56:21,461 --> 00:56:24,341
Do me a favor. If the father comes
out, call it in to the station.

1014
00:56:24,423 --> 00:56:26,343
- You got it.
- Thank you.

1015
00:56:28,500 --> 00:56:29,597
He's loving this.

1016
00:56:29,678 --> 00:56:33,308
Police, press, choppers... Like a
fucking presidential motorcade.

1017
00:56:33,390 --> 00:56:35,640
And he knows it's a
colossal waste of time.

1018
00:56:35,726 --> 00:56:38,936
The hours we spend following him to
convenience stores and dive bars

1019
00:56:39,021 --> 00:56:40,561
get us no closer to an arrest.

1020
00:56:41,607 --> 00:56:42,897
Could be a late lunch.

1021
00:56:43,692 --> 00:56:46,282
Maybe we'll get another
shitty fish sandwich.

1022
00:57:19,853 --> 00:57:22,813
Maynard Jackson! Mayor!

1023
00:57:23,732 --> 00:57:25,532
Come look at the mess you made!

1024
00:57:27,235 --> 00:57:29,065
Funny way to demand less attention.

1025
00:57:29,404 --> 00:57:30,454
Yeah, it is.

1026
00:57:33,492 --> 00:57:35,452
Mayor! You put out a bounty,

1027
00:57:35,535 --> 00:57:37,575
but don't care if you
frame an innocent man?

1028
00:57:37,663 --> 00:57:39,333
Come look at what I have to live with!

1029
00:57:41,792 --> 00:57:44,592
Where are you going, Mayor?
To call the police?

1030
00:57:44,670 --> 00:57:45,840
They already here!

1031
00:57:47,130 --> 00:57:48,590
Why are you hiding?

1032
00:57:48,674 --> 00:57:51,184
Get back out here and look
at what you have done!

1033
00:57:51,259 --> 00:57:53,969
Station to A-T-64.
Package two is moving.

1034
00:57:54,054 --> 00:57:55,224
Package two is moving.

1035
00:57:55,305 --> 00:57:57,425
Traveling west in a black Mercury sedan.

1036
00:57:59,226 --> 00:58:01,396
A-T-64 has eyes on him.

1037
00:58:24,209 --> 00:58:25,760
- Hmm. Mm-hmm.
- Excuse me.

1038
00:58:25,780 --> 00:58:26,850
Hi.

1039
00:58:26,878 --> 00:58:28,548
- Sorry. Uh...
- Hi.

1040
00:58:29,965 --> 00:58:32,255
The man who just left
here, what did he want?

1041
00:58:32,884 --> 00:58:35,644
He was inquiring about
charters to South America.

1042
00:58:36,596 --> 00:58:38,886
Did he purchase anything, a ticket?

1043
00:58:38,974 --> 00:58:42,234
No. But he did say he might
be seeing me again soon.

1044
00:58:43,600 --> 00:58:44,649
Thank you.

1045
00:58:45,022 --> 00:58:47,022
We've seen unsubs exhibit hubris.

1046
00:58:48,025 --> 00:58:50,485
Writing letters, hanging
out in cop bars.

1047
00:58:50,819 --> 00:58:52,899
But if one of them had
openly become a suspect,

1048
00:58:52,988 --> 00:58:54,448
would they be taunting police?

1049
00:58:54,531 --> 00:58:56,661
This guy has no
self-preservation instinct.

1050
00:58:57,159 --> 00:59:00,749
This is his one chance to get the
attention he feels he deserves.

1051
00:59:01,246 --> 00:59:02,536
As soon as the story slows down,

1052
00:59:02,622 --> 00:59:04,622
he finds a way to get the
cameras back on him.

1053
00:59:04,708 --> 00:59:05,708
There you are.

1054
00:59:06,800 --> 00:59:08,980
- You missed it.
- Missed what?

1055
00:59:09,010 --> 00:59:11,088
Guess where Quincy Jones took us today?

1056
00:59:11,173 --> 00:59:13,183
- The mayor's house.
- And not just a drive-by.

1057
00:59:13,250 --> 00:59:15,040
He parked the whole convoy on the road.

1058
00:59:15,060 --> 00:59:16,758
Ringmaster of his own media circus.

1059
00:59:16,845 --> 00:59:18,755
- It was unbelievable.
- It makes perfect sense.

1060
00:59:18,847 --> 00:59:20,807
- That's what I was saying.
- It's a diversion.

1061
00:59:21,725 --> 00:59:23,305
- A diversion?
- For?

1062
00:59:23,390 --> 00:59:25,060
After he pulled out,
Homer left the house.

1063
00:59:25,090 --> 00:59:26,233
I followed him to the airport.

1064
00:59:26,310 --> 00:59:28,220
He made inquiries with a private charter

1065
00:59:28,250 --> 00:59:30,073
about flights to South America.

1066
00:59:31,318 --> 00:59:32,528
You gotta call Slaton.

1067
00:59:33,111 --> 00:59:34,821
We may not be able to give
him any more evidence,

1068
00:59:34,905 --> 00:59:37,315
but our main suspect just
became a flight risk.

1069
00:59:40,994 --> 00:59:42,334
It wasn't just hubris.

1070
00:59:43,163 --> 00:59:44,253
It was strategic.

1071
01:00:04,392 --> 01:00:06,522
If they won't take flight
risk as probable cause,

1072
01:00:06,603 --> 01:00:09,153
we're gonna be sittin' out
here till the next body drops.

1073
01:00:19,241 --> 01:00:20,281
What the fuck?

1074
01:00:35,460 --> 01:00:36,980
They're bringing him out!

1075
01:00:37,649 --> 01:00:39,385
What are the charges?

1076
01:00:53,900 --> 01:00:55,150
Did I miss something?

1077
01:00:55,235 --> 01:00:56,355
Looks like we all did.

1078
01:01:04,020 --> 01:01:06,520
The DA told us we had
insubstantial evidence.

1079
01:01:06,528 --> 01:01:08,690
- It's his drumbeat.
- It seems he was persuaded

1080
01:01:08,710 --> 01:01:09,960
to change his mind.

1081
01:01:09,980 --> 01:01:10,990
How?

1082
01:01:11,000 --> 01:01:12,400
The Justice Department
invited themselves

1083
01:01:12,430 --> 01:01:14,051
to the governor's mansion last night.

1084
01:01:14,129 --> 01:01:16,459
- And the DA was guest of honor.
- He was.

1085
01:01:16,548 --> 01:01:19,008
The fibers from the search
came back a perfect match.

1086
01:01:19,092 --> 01:01:20,318
Justice was able to convince him

1087
01:01:20,360 --> 01:01:21,932
that he could get a
conviction with that.

1088
01:01:22,012 --> 01:01:24,062
Slaton agreed to charge him
with two of the murders,

1089
01:01:24,139 --> 01:01:25,769
as long as his officers made the arrest.

1090
01:01:25,849 --> 01:01:27,979
- We don't care who hauls him in.
- Exactly.

1091
01:01:28,059 --> 01:01:30,519
- Which two is he charged with?
- The one near the bridge. Carter?

1092
01:01:30,604 --> 01:01:33,274
- Cater.
- And number 27. Payne, I think.

1093
01:01:33,356 --> 01:01:35,856
Both adults? They aren't getting
him for any of the children?

1094
01:01:35,942 --> 01:01:39,032
Look, he could be good for
anywhere from two to ten of them.

1095
01:01:39,112 --> 01:01:41,662
They'll charge him with as many as
they think will get convictions.

1096
01:01:41,740 --> 01:01:44,410
The important thing is we
got him off the streets.

1097
01:01:45,160 --> 01:01:49,160
Earlier today, a man by the
name of Wayne Bertram Williams

1098
01:01:49,240 --> 01:01:50,600
was arrested and charged

1099
01:01:50,630 --> 01:01:52,552
with the murders of Nathaniel Cater

1100
01:01:52,570 --> 01:01:53,660
and Jimmy Ray Payne.

1101
01:01:54,544 --> 01:01:58,134
This arrest comes after an
extensive investigation led

1102
01:01:58,215 --> 01:01:59,545
by the FBI,

1103
01:01:59,633 --> 01:02:02,093
in conjunction with local
and state authorities.

1104
01:02:02,928 --> 01:02:07,848
I now pray our city, which has
been through so much, can rest,

1105
01:02:07,933 --> 01:02:12,193
and that today's events mark the
start of a time for us to heal.

1106
01:02:12,270 --> 01:02:14,480
Left a stack of shit on your desk.

1107
01:02:14,564 --> 01:02:15,824
Still a lot to clean up.

1108
01:02:15,899 --> 01:02:16,899
Thanks.

1109
01:02:17,525 --> 01:02:19,275
Remember your kid in the mall,

1110
01:02:19,360 --> 01:02:21,840
the house next to Fulton County
Stadium he talked about?

1111
01:02:21,860 --> 01:02:22,890
Yeah.

1112
01:02:22,910 --> 01:02:24,821
I asked a recruit to
go through three years

1113
01:02:24,900 --> 01:02:28,140
of pedophile complaints and
convictions, look for any red flags.

1114
01:02:28,170 --> 01:02:29,220
Found this guy.

1115
01:02:29,246 --> 01:02:31,076
Sixty-three-years-old, black.

1116
01:02:31,164 --> 01:02:32,650
We got complaints of young boys

1117
01:02:32,680 --> 01:02:34,674
being given drugs and
spending the night.

1118
01:02:36,836 --> 01:02:37,956
This fucking smells.

1119
01:02:38,338 --> 01:02:40,628
There's no connection between
him and the house in Lakewood.

1120
01:02:40,715 --> 01:02:42,740
- The old white guy.
- This recruit was on the detail

1121
01:02:42,760 --> 01:02:44,893
that boxed up the
Polaroids from Lakewood.

1122
01:02:44,970 --> 01:02:47,430
He swears there were pictures
of black children among them.

1123
01:02:47,514 --> 01:02:50,184
Evidence log said the photos were
exclusively young white males.

1124
01:02:50,267 --> 01:02:53,017
He also said they hauled out
thousands of Polaroids.

1125
01:02:54,771 --> 01:02:57,361
This puts the number
between 300 and 400.

1126
01:02:57,774 --> 01:02:59,864
He says APD locked up the photos.

1127
01:03:00,100 --> 01:03:01,600
But when they got logged into evidence,

1128
01:03:01,630 --> 01:03:03,195
there were no pictures
of black children.

1129
01:03:03,280 --> 01:03:06,200
Would your recruit go on record
with the district attorney?

1130
01:03:06,280 --> 01:03:08,140
He doesn't want his name to be used.

1131
01:03:08,190 --> 01:03:09,793
He's just giving us
something to run down.

1132
01:03:09,869 --> 01:03:12,459
We know two of our victims
visited the Lakewood house.

1133
01:03:12,914 --> 01:03:16,794
And we have an unverified account
of kids going to a "stadium house."

1134
01:03:17,294 --> 01:03:18,634
You've got the manpower now.

1135
01:03:18,712 --> 01:03:21,012
Start with those two houses,
question the neighbors,

1136
01:03:21,089 --> 01:03:23,219
press the offenders.
Something will shake loose.

1137
01:03:25,218 --> 01:03:27,678
Do it quietly, independently.

1138
01:03:27,762 --> 01:03:30,522
We've been working with
this task force for months.

1139
01:03:30,598 --> 01:03:32,888
Somebody from APD knew we
should have been looking

1140
01:03:32,976 --> 01:03:34,476
at these guys all along.

1141
01:04:04,883 --> 01:04:06,893
Smells good.

1142
01:04:08,470 --> 01:04:11,470
- You come to be congratulated?
- To say goodbye.

1143
01:04:11,890 --> 01:04:14,770
For now. But I want you
to know I'll be back.

1144
01:04:15,185 --> 01:04:16,805
The FBI is still working these cases.

1145
01:04:16,895 --> 01:04:19,975
My son Yusef's been dead
20 months now, Agent Ford.

1146
01:04:20,732 --> 01:04:23,652
All my Yusef could've and
should've been is gone.

1147
01:04:25,403 --> 01:04:29,573
And you're telling me that that
is on account of Wayne Williams?

1148
01:04:29,640 --> 01:04:30,664
Yes.

1149
01:04:30,742 --> 01:04:32,912
Then why hasn't he been arrested for it?

1150
01:04:32,994 --> 01:04:35,504
Why hasn't he been charged with
killing of any of our babies?

1151
01:04:36,873 --> 01:04:38,003
More charges will be brought.

1152
01:04:38,083 --> 01:04:39,883
Is it because you aren't
really sure it's him?

1153
01:04:40,460 --> 01:04:44,090
Mrs. Bell, I'm not saying Williams
perpetrated all 29 murders.

1154
01:04:44,172 --> 01:04:47,802
But right now, we have
enough to tie him to two.

1155
01:04:47,884 --> 01:04:50,224
And I'm confident, given time,

1156
01:04:50,303 --> 01:04:53,063
we'll be able to charge him with
a significant number of them.

1157
01:04:53,390 --> 01:04:56,140
We still have agents from all over
working every case diligently.

1158
01:04:56,226 --> 01:04:59,266
You do now. But what about tomorrow?

1159
01:04:59,350 --> 01:05:01,880
When everybody decides they've
found their scapegoat

1160
01:05:01,910 --> 01:05:03,400
and that is good enough.

1161
01:05:05,318 --> 01:05:06,898
What are we gonna be left with?

1162
01:05:06,986 --> 01:05:08,356
We are not leaving.

1163
01:05:08,446 --> 01:05:10,156
And Williams will spend the
rest of his life in...

1164
01:05:10,240 --> 01:05:12,530
Not for Yusef's death.

1165
01:05:14,077 --> 01:05:15,117
Or Jeffrey's.

1166
01:05:15,703 --> 01:05:17,503
Or Angel's. Or Earl's.

1167
01:05:18,623 --> 01:05:21,713
Wayne Williams didn't kill my boy.
I know that in my bones.

1168
01:05:23,128 --> 01:05:24,878
You've gone and found
yourselves a black man.

1169
01:05:24,963 --> 01:05:27,093
Wayne might just be
Atlanta's 30th victim.

1170
01:05:27,173 --> 01:05:28,633
I can promise you that's not true.

1171
01:05:30,468 --> 01:05:32,678
Careful about making
promises, Agent Ford.

1172
01:05:37,016 --> 01:05:39,266
That is known as a victory lap.

1173
01:05:39,352 --> 01:05:42,152
families who have
waited so long for justice.

1174
01:05:42,689 --> 01:05:44,819
It's supposed to be taken
at the end of the race.

1175
01:05:47,068 --> 01:05:48,238
I'm sorry to interrupt.

1176
01:05:49,070 --> 01:05:51,990
Enjoy your meal, and
I will see you soon.

1177
01:06:04,836 --> 01:06:06,086
Congratulations!

1178
01:06:06,420 --> 01:06:07,740
Have The Beatles landed?

1179
01:06:07,770 --> 01:06:09,971
We're the fucking Beatles.

1180
01:06:10,049 --> 01:06:12,049
Wow! Beats Delta.

1181
01:06:12,719 --> 01:06:14,139
Webster's very pleased.

1182
01:06:14,220 --> 01:06:16,890
He's deemed the Bureau's
success as largely due to us.

1183
01:06:17,515 --> 01:06:19,425
It's nice, being recognized.

1184
01:06:19,517 --> 01:06:20,767
Well, you've earned it.

1185
01:06:21,060 --> 01:06:24,060
We closed the highest profile
case in the country.

1186
01:06:24,772 --> 01:06:27,362
We're downgrading Atlanta
to pending inactive status.

1187
01:06:27,442 --> 01:06:29,112
The director wants to
show his appreciation.

1188
01:06:29,194 --> 01:06:30,784
Wait, inactive?

1189
01:06:30,862 --> 01:06:33,492
We'll keep a few agents
here for trial support

1190
01:06:33,573 --> 01:06:34,993
and cataloging evidence.

1191
01:06:35,074 --> 01:06:36,074
What about the kids?

1192
01:06:37,035 --> 01:06:39,745
It's up to the DA which
cases get tied to Williams.

1193
01:06:40,413 --> 01:06:43,793
The important thing is, from
now on, we'll be first in.

1194
01:06:44,584 --> 01:06:45,884
Atlanta's changed everything.

1195
01:06:48,838 --> 01:06:50,088
We did our jobs.

1196
01:06:50,882 --> 01:06:53,182
We have no control over anything else.

1197
01:06:54,886 --> 01:06:56,216
Take a victory lap.

1198
01:08:30,273 --> 01:08:32,113
President Reagan has told Congress

1199
01:08:32,191 --> 01:08:33,401
he will throw his full support

1200
01:08:33,484 --> 01:08:36,154
behind the bipartisan...

1201
01:08:43,530 --> 01:08:45,300
And the adoption of the amendment

1202
01:08:45,320 --> 01:08:47,916
will curtail current
costs and inflation.

1203
01:08:48,416 --> 01:08:51,706
The House will vote on the proposed
amendment in the coming weeks.

1204
01:08:52,253 --> 01:08:54,463
In Atlanta today, the
public safety commissioner

1205
01:08:54,547 --> 01:08:55,757
and the district attorney

1206
01:08:55,840 --> 01:08:58,260
held a press conference
to announce developments

1207
01:08:58,343 --> 01:09:01,303
in the case of the city's
missing and murdered children.

1208
01:09:01,387 --> 01:09:03,217
In all investigations, you reach a point

1209
01:09:03,306 --> 01:09:04,466
when you've done all you can.

1210
01:09:04,932 --> 01:09:08,272
So for now, we're suspending
all 29 investigations,

1211
01:09:08,770 --> 01:09:11,150
having arrested our prime suspect.

1212
01:09:11,230 --> 01:09:13,320
Commissioner!

1213
01:09:13,980 --> 01:09:16,170
Will Wayne Williams be indicted

1214
01:09:16,190 --> 01:09:17,653
for more than two murders?

1215
01:09:17,737 --> 01:09:19,027
At this time, no.

1216
01:09:20,073 --> 01:09:21,660
Does that mean you're
telling the families

1217
01:09:21,680 --> 01:09:22,690
of the other victims

1218
01:09:22,700 --> 01:09:25,240
that the man who murdered their
children might walk free?

1219
01:09:27,040 --> 01:09:28,180
No, we are not.

1220
01:09:28,289 --> 01:09:30,419
I would say to them that
their children's cases

1221
01:09:30,500 --> 01:09:32,840
will be handed to local
police departments.

1222
01:09:32,919 --> 01:09:33,959
I would also say that,

1223
01:09:34,045 --> 01:09:37,255
while we may not have all the
required evidence to convict,

1224
01:09:37,340 --> 01:09:39,340
we do have enough to close.
