The bond hearing was held at the Russell County Courthouse at 3:30 p.m. on Dec. 14.

Williams was escorted into the courtroom through a private hallway. Upon entering the courtroom, Willliams seemed numb - twitching and having uncontrollable bodily movements at times.

“There’s going to be a gag order, so as far as any facts for this case, the judge has ordered that we do not disclose any other facts or findings as it comes out in this case. The judge said that he will address the fine-tuning of that gag order very soon hopefully so that we will be able to get information out as it comes available,” said Russell County Chief Deputy DA, Rick Chancey.

Russell County Chief Deputy DA Rick Chancey and Russell County Sheriff Heath Taylor say if the facts turn out true, they will fully seek the death penalty.

Williams was also charged with aggravated child abuse in a 2009 case involving a three-year-old boy in Russell County. Williams was accused of immersing the lower half of the boy’s body into a pot of boiling water. Williams defense was the boy pulled the water on top of himself. A jury acquitted Williams of those charges.

I so desperately hope this not turn out to be like the 5 year old Shaniya Davis case.
how the h did only the boys lower body sustain burns if he pulled it onto himself???

also from this link: "Taylor said Williams was a suspect in the case of a missing one-year-old in Alaska, but he was never charged. Taylor mention the case, but did not elaborate on it." so its a MISSING child.....

Not sure if 1 year old was ever found but this one says he was a suspect in the death.

Williams also was identified as a suspect in the death of a 1 year old in Alaska, but was never charged due to lack of evidence, Taylor said.

Why the gag order?
Judge David Johnson issued a preliminary gag order - and parties may not discuss the case or facts to the press.

“There’s going to be a gag order, so as far as any facts for this case, the judge has ordered that we do not disclose any other facts or findings as it comes out in this case. The judge said that he will address the fine-tuning of that gag order very soon hopefully so that we will be able to get information out as it comes available,” said Russell County Chief Deputy DA, Rick Chancey.

IT WAS ALSO REVEALED THAT THE MOTHER AND THE SUSPECT KNEW EACH OTHER; HOWEVER, THE SHERIFF SAYS THE TWO WERE NOT DATING EACH OTHER.

WILLIAMS IS ALSO CONNECTED TO SEVERAL CHILD ABUSE CASES, ACCORDING TO TAYLOR. HE WAS PREVIOUSLY CHARGED WITH ABUSING CHILDREN IN PHENIX CITY AND COLUMBUS. HE WAS ALSO A SUSPECT IN THE DEATH OF A 1-YEAR-OLD IN ALASKA, BUT THAT CHARGE WAS DROPPED DUE TO INSUFFICIENT EVIDENCE, THE SHERIFF SAID.

WILLIAMS FACES A CAPITAL MURDER CHARGE. SHERIFF TAYLOR SAID ADDITIONAL CHARGES, INCLUDING CAPITAL MURDER DURING KIDNAPPING AND RAPE, ARE FORTHCOMING.

THE INVESTIGATION IS ONGOING BY THE RUSSELL COUNTY SHERIFF’S OFFICE AND THE COLUMBUS POLICE DEPARTMENT. HE IS DUE IN COURT ON TUESDAY AT 3 P.M.

Emphasis added by me.

I pray this wasn't another Shaniya. But if this case shares certain, er, similarities, I understand why a gag order was immediately sought and issued by the judge because they may still be investigating and more charges might be forthcoming depending on what they find.
 
The sheriff said the investigation continues into whether other people were involved in Kamarie's death.

"There's a lot of details that I'm not willing to disclose at this time," he said. "Because of the urgency in this case, and potential other folks that we may be looking into as suspects or offenders alongside Mr. Williams." Body of girl, 5, found with 'signs of abuse' as 'kidnapping' suspect is arrested
 
It was a multi-agency investigation that led to the girl’s body being discovered in an abandoned house in the 1100 block of 15th Avenue in Phenix City. The house sits next to West End Cemetery.

Sound like good detective work -- they found her very quickly. How did they know to go there? Did mom give them some info on where to find him?

I'm just now getting on this thread, so please forgive if I am asking things that are already known...
 
I am just so deflated today. How many more babies?

I finished my finals yesterday. Once step closer to graduating and trying to get a job with my local CPS.
A big Congratulations to you, Allynator!
Good luck on the job search. If you succeed, and I've a feeling you will, I'll be glad you'll be helping people, especially those who cannot help or speak for themselves. ;)
 
I’m angry. This is my city, Kamarie could’ve been my daughter, Columbus is beyond overwrought with crime. We’re at 70 murders for the year and we aren’t a huge city. Last week a man was shot and killed on the steps of the east precinct station. We had a city-wide phone alert message sent out when a drug offender escaped a work detail but nothing for this baby. People aren’t held accountable for their actions! I realize we don’t yet know mom’s connection to the murderer but if it’s as most of us suspect, I want her charged too. Sexual predators may target women with small children but those women also have a duty to protect their kids above all else.
Good post, Peppery. Agree 100%.
 


From that article:

The mother of little Kamarie Holland stopped by News Leader 9 to donate toys to the WTVM Annual Toy Drive to talk about her princess and the unbelievable hurt and pain she’s having to endure as she tries to process what happened to her.

“I’m Kamarie Holland’s mommy and she wouldn’t want nothing in the world but to donate her toys to another little child that was in need because she was a very helping child,” said Kristy Hoskins.

Do I read this right that she was already giving away her murdered daughter's toys?

That's what it sounds like to me
