On August 5, 1987, 8-year-old Eric Williams was murdered during a home invasion at his grandmother’s house in Shreveport, Louisiana. The attack also claimed the lives of his mother, Martha Leach, his aunt, Geraldine James, and his grandmother, Billy Joe Harris. All four were found bound, gagged, and with multiple stab wounds.

The assailant was identified as Nathaniel Robert Code, a convicted serial killer and former prison inmate with a prior burglary conviction. The method of killing in this attack—multiple stab wounds and restraints—matched Code’s other murders from 1984 to 1987, which left eight victims in total.

The killing of a child inside his family home shocked the community and became part of the larger investigation into Code’s murder spree. Does anyone have memories of the neighborhood or information about the family that could shed more light on what happened that day?
