Melissa Urbin was 14 when she and her 16-year-old sister Michelle were abducted near their home in Tyrone Township, Fenton, Michigan, on September 29, 1991. They were taken to a secluded area, sexually assaulted, murdered and buried in shallow graves.

Investigators say the case broke in May 1992 after Williams was arrested for the attempted abduction and rape of another woman at a cemetery. He then confessed to the murders of four teenage girls, including Melissa and Michelle, and led police to the bodies. The other identified victims were 18-year-old Kami Villanueva and 15-year-old Cynthia Marie Jones.

Williams was convicted on counts including first-degree murder, kidnapping and criminal sexual conduct and was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole. The case generated outrage over his parole status prior to the killings.

Did anyone in the Fenton or Tyrone Township area have information about the sisters or Williams in the months before September 29, 1991?
