Seven-year-old Latonya Yovette Wilson disappeared from her family’s second-floor apartment in the Hillcrest Heights complex in Atlanta in the summer of 1980. On the early morning of June 22 a witness saw a man climbing into the Wilsons’ window multiple times; the same man was later seen in the complex parking lot carrying Latonya and talking with another man. A neighbor recalled hearing a disturbance and a woman’s voice cry out Stop.

Hundreds of volunteers and law enforcement searched for months. On October 18, 1980 Latonya’s skeletal remains were found in a fenced-off area at the end of Verbena Street; decomposition was advanced enough that the medical examiner could not determine a cause of death. Her death was included among the Atlanta Child Murders.

Several people have been named as persons of interest over the years, including Wayne Williams and a maintenance worker who had worked in the Wilsons’ apartment; Nathaniel Cater, a resident of the same building, was suspected as possibly one of the two men seen in the parking lot. The case remains unsolved. Does anyone have information about Latonya, the Hillcrest Heights complex, or the parking lot scene that could help investigators?
