Atlanta's Missing and Murdered Children
🕑 Added 2020-04-25 19:45:23 +0000 UTCWayne Williams was convicted of the murders of two young adults in 1982, supposedly bringing an end to the reign of terror of the “Atlanta Monster.” But the cases of at least 27 other missing or murdered African American children were abruptly closed in the aftermath of his conviction, leaving the surviving families with little peace, and no semblance of closure. We spoke with three of the Directors of HBO’s new series, “Atlanta’s Missing and Murdered: The Lost Children” - and asked about their experience creating the new groundbreaking series, and what new light they hope to shed on the now 40-year-old cases. Their investigation uncovered shocking details of evidence tampering, perjury, and widespread cover-up at the highest levels of government and law enforcement.
Special thanks to award-winning documentary film Directors Sam Pollard, Maro Chermayeff, and Joshua Bennett for participating in this episode.

Wayne Williams was the right guy. I don’t know why people refuse to accept it.

It was great. When they stopped him on the bridge I had chills
