The Atlanta Child Child Murders on CNN with Soledad O'Brien

The CNN DOCUMENTARY:  THE ATLANTA CHILD MURDERS premieres this Thursday, June 10.

Almost thirty years after the murders of more than 25 black children, teens and young adults, CNN anchor and special correspondent Soledad O’Brien investigates the nearly two-year siege of fear that gripped the city of Atlanta.

Although Wayne Williams continues to profess his innocence from behind bars, with his arrest and conviction, he was described as both a “monster” – and the nation’s first Black serial killer.

In his first television interview in 10 years, O’Brien has exclusive access to Williams and examines new evidence to offer viewers a new look at the persistent doubts, and decide for themselves who was responsible for all those lost young lives.

Viewers will be able to vote online for their verdict on the case at CNN.com/atlantachildmurders

The program was interesting. But Soledad, do your homework, it would be very easy for someone of your size and stature to choke someone to death with the right hold. These are simple martial arts principals based mostly on angles and leverage. Ethics aren't proportional to physical ability. Just because you wouldn't kill someone with a choke hold, doesn't mean you COULDN'T. Poor Journalism, I find it rather sad that at 44 years of age your journalistic sense extends no farther than that of twenty year old hopeful.

"...the nation's first black serial killer..."

Perhaps it would be informative to google "Zebra Murders" and reconsider that last statement.

As far as "an old World War II spy" with a handy training camp and CIA connections, not to mention tight connections to KKK/Nazi Roy Frankhouser, and J.B. Stoner, and Lyndon Larouche, try Mitch WerBell.

I find it ...interesting that nobody else has, in so far as I know, even considered, let alone pursued these leads.
