Ronald Turney Williams (born April 4, 1943) is an American serial killer, burglar, arsonist,[3] kidnapper,[3] prison escapee, and former fugitive. In 1979, Williams and fourteen other inmates escaped from the West Virginia State Penitentiary, where he was serving a life sentence for the 1975 murder of a police officer.[3] During the escape, Williams killed another police officer and committed another murder in Arizona in 1981 during his fugitive state.[4]
In 1981, the FBI tracked Williams to a Manhattan, New York motel, where a gunfight ensued between Williams and the agents, and Williams was seriously wounded and was apprehended.[5] For the murders, Williams received a second life sentence in West Virginia and in 1984 received the death penalty in Arizona.[6] He remains incarcerated at Mount Olive Correctional Complex in West Virginia.[7]
