Wayne Buddy Williams Jr., 23, was one of the first people killed in the mass shooting at ESL Inc. in Sunnyvale, California, on February 16, 1988. The shooter, Richard Wade Farley, a former ESL employee who had been stalking a co-worker, entered the company headquarters armed with multiple firearms and shot Williams behind his desk near the lobby.

Farley’s rampage left seven people dead and four wounded that day. The attack drew national attention and is described as having prompted changes in anti-stalking laws. Farley was arrested and charged with multiple counts of first-degree murder; his trial and sentence are noted as high-profile in the aftermath.

If anyone worked at ESL in 1988 or remembers Wayne Buddy Williams Jr., any memories or information about his last day at the office would be valuable to share.
