John E. Williams II, 70, was found dead in his home on Glen Charlie Road in Wareham, Massachusetts, on February 9, 2016, after friends requested a welfare check. Described as a father and grandfather who enjoyed amateur piloting, ham radio and motorcycles, Williams was discovered in a pool of blood with numerous wounds. An autopsy confirmed he died of ten gunshot wounds and multiple sharp-force injuries to his torso, hands and arms, some of which were defensive wounds.

Investigators focused on 70-year-old John Wittey of Berkley, who knew Williams through amateur radio. GPS data placed Wittey’s car at Williams’s home several times the night of the killing. Officers recovered spent 9mm casings at the scene; searches of Wittey’s residence allegedly turned up two handguns (one matched to the scene, the other reportedly bearing the victim’s blood) and clothing containing the victim’s blood. Wittey was arrested three days after the body was found.

What can anyone who knew John Williams or who was in the Wareham area that week add to the timeline or the people in his life?
