The defendant pleaded guilty to the charges on Monday, June 6th in Catawba County Superior Court. The Honorable J. Thomas Davis, Superior Court Judge from Rutherford County, imposed the active prison term for Williams.
Investigators from the Catawba County Sheriff’s Office responded to a residence in Maiden on March 26, 2021, and found a male and female victim suffering from gunshot wounds. They were able to develop Williams as a suspect, and both victims identified him as the person who shot them.
During the investigation, it was determined that Williams and the male victim were acquaintances who had problems in the past. The North Carolina State Bureau of Investigation (NCSBI) assisted with the crime scene investigation and located multiple spent .40-caliber shell casings around the front door area of the home.
