Willie Williams Case
Willie “Flip” Williams died with the same cold disdain for his own life that he showed for the four men he shot dead in a Youngstown housing project 14 years ago. Williams was executed by injection Tuesday at the Lucasville prison while his daughter, brother and an uncle watched. Also watching were 12 members of his victims’ families.
With his last, defiant words, Williams, 48, spoke only to his family and never uttered a bit of the remorse the victims’ families had hoped to hear. “I’m not going to waste no time talking about my lifestyle, my case, my punishment,” said Williams, after blowing a kiss to his daughter, Jameka. “I love you all very much. Ya’ll stick together. Don’t worry about me. I’m OK. This all ain’t nothing. That’s it.”
In a soft voice, Jameka replied: “I love you, Daddy.” With that, the drugs began pulsating through Williams’ body. He was pronounced dead eight minutes later at 10:20 a.m.
“I guess this is it,” said Donna Wynn, mother of Theodore Wynn Jr., one of four men murdered execution-style by Williams on Sept. 2, 1991. Donna Wynn later said she hoped Williams at least expressed remorse to his grieving mother, who was at the prison but did not witness the execution.
The victims’ families said they were most stung by Williams’ final words. “It was almost like his last taunt, This ain’t nothing,’ ” said Alicia Ennis, mother to a 13-year-old daughter of victim William Dent, who never got to see his child. “This is not closure for me, because I still have to raise my daughter.” Tawanda Madison said Williams died too peacefully. He didn’t have to plead for his life, Madison said, like her brother Alfonda Ray Madison did. “It was too easy,” she said.
Williams’ death closed the book on one of the most violent crimes to strike a city known for its street violence. So ended the life of a brazen, power-driven criminal with a record dating to his teenage years. Williams killed Madison, Dent and Eric Howard inside Madison’s home in an attempt to take over a drug trafficking business in the neighborhood, according to court records. Wynn, a recently discharged Air Force sergeant, showed up at the wrong time to visit his friend, Madison, police said.
Williams did not sleep more than 30 minutes in his final 24 hours, prison officials said. He visited more than 35 family members — the largest throng of visitors on the eve of an execution that prison officials could recall. They were allowed to sit with Williams for short periods in groups of three. He refused dinner and breakfast, accepting only a cup of coffee and two cups of water.
Williams, who did not ask for clemency, was the 18th death row inmate executed in Ohio since the state resumed executions in 1999.
