Patricia Johnson, a 19‑year‑old Black woman from Miami, was found dead in a vacant lot in the Overtown neighborhood on July 16, 1984. Investigators determined she had been raped and strangled and left naked from the waist down — details described as consistent with a brutal pattern seen in other killings of vulnerable women in the area.

Metro‑Dade detectives focused on 36‑year‑old Anthony Williams as a suspect in a series of murders from about 1980 through the late 1980s. Witnesses placed Williams with several victims prior to their deaths, and the Chief Medical Examiner, Dr. Charles Davis, ruled asphyxiation in Johnson’s case, matching the cause of death in at least 14 similar cases. A grand jury indicted Williams on first‑degree murder charges in July 1992; he had earlier faced sexual assault charges.

Does anyone have information about Patricia’s life in Overtown or about the 1992 indictment that could help clarify what happened next?
