That's an episode about THIS case on HLN cable, and I currently do not see it mentioned in this Wikipedia article. It says that when Mike Williams' remains were found, his wedding ring, from his marriage to Denise, was still there. Carlm0404 (talk) 11:40, 31 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
A nice detail ... do you think you could give some more specific source info? Maybe it's online somewhere. Daniel Case (talk) 01:03, 1 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
His name is Jerry Michael Williams. But, the article keeps referring to him as "Michael" or "Mike". This should be clarified, to some extent. When I was reading sentences that contained "Michael" or "Mike", I got confused ... and assumed that Jerry Williams had some relative named Mike Williams. In other words, a totally different person. But, I believe that "Jerry" and "Mike" refer to the same person, the murder victim. But, I am not sure. Can anyone clarify? Thanks. Joseph A. Spadaro (talk) 21:28, 4 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Apparently his friends and family all called him Mike. Daniel Case (talk) 03:49, 5 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
OK. Thanks. The article was not clear. Upon my first reading, I thought that "Mike Williams" was a totally different person than "Jerry Williams" (the victim) ... perhaps a relative, brother, father, uncle, what-have-you. I added a sentence, stating that "Jerry" was also known as "Mike / Michael". Thanks. Joseph A. Spadaro (talk) 21:37, 5 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
