No matter which direction it apparently goes this case continually returns full circle to focus on Kim Raffos movements on the early morning hours of Nov 19, 2006.
She leaves a client, a N. Jersey doctor, at 5:00 am from The Taj Mahal casino to go get drugs. Her body, along with three others, is found in a ditch behind the Golden Key motel at 2:30 pm Nov 20, 2006. Worldwide media coverage ensues. Flash forward to 2012.
On March 17, 2012 a young lady by the name of Franchesca Alvarado goes on a date with an older man named Tracy Williams Sr. They take a trip from Philadelphia, where both reside, to Atlantic City. As this article states:
He returned. She did not. Her family reported her missing March 17. He agreed to be questioned by police but got a lawyer when asked to take a polygraph. The investigation hit a wall, then seemed to fizzle out.

The family of Ms. Alvarado become frantic and initiate trips to AC to hand out fliers with her picture hoping to gather some small piece of information concerning her fate. In late 2013
A fisherman in September found a severed foot washed ashore at Corson's Inlet State Park in Ocean City. A DNA test revealed the appendage belonged to Alvarado.
In the months following the discover of the bodies behind the Golden Key a number of suspects named Coles, Schlue, Hessee, Oelson are questioned by authorities but no charges come of it. Years later an individual name Dennis Gaskill is pulled into the mix but the evidence against him is shaky, to say the least.
But there is one individual who can be placed in the area where two women were last seen alive. If the information that the sister of Ms. Alvarado provided is reliable then a surveillance camera located inside The Resorts Casino captured the last images of her sister before she mysteriously disappeared.
Is it mere coincidence that the last images of Kim Raffo alive were captured by cameras inside The Taj Mahal and apparently tracked her movements across the casino floor to possibly exit towards the adjacent Resorts Casino?
In the ten years since the bodies were discovered behind the Golden Key there has been very little information released and no new suspects to the case named. However, we do know the name of the person who brought Franchesca Alvarado to Atlantic City on March 17, 2012 and, apparently ditched her there, only to have her toenail painted foot-in-a-sneaker wash up on an inlet in nearby Ocean City, NJ.
Who is this Tracy Williams Sr.?
For starters one can look at this petition on change.org perhaps started by the Alvarado family before her eventual fate was discovered.

As always, just my opinion.
Ps: I realize that Ive continually posted rather lengthy posts here over the course of the past few months. In an age of transparency its been an effort to publish research gathered from just about all of the news articles that have covered this case.
With the lack of any official new suspects being named in the past nine and a half years its been difficult, to say the least, to try and drawn some kind of conclusion. Everyone wants the answer to who killed these women.
As tenuous of a link that it is, the connection between two women being last seen alive in the area surrounding The Resorts Casino is too compelling to ignore. But at least in one case we do have an individual who was officially questioned by Law Enforcement.
But the investigation was stopped in its tracks when he clammed-up and lawyered-up.
