On April 4, 1990, 21-year-old Carl D. Williams was among six people killed during a robbery at a reputed crack house in Detroit. The residence belonged to Steven Owens, who was also killed in the attack. The killings were one event in a broader wave of violence in the neighborhood that spring.

Police identified four suspects in the case. Tamara Marie Marshall entered the house first; Jamal Latiff Biggs and Mark Lamond Bell were armed and accused of carrying out the shootings; Marc Caisson is described as the getaway driver who waited outside in a black Ford Taurus. Survivors provided information that investigators used to arrest all four, and prosecutors charged them with multiple counts, including six counts of first-degree murder with mandatory life terms without parole if convicted.

The victims and the young ages of those charged made the case a major story in the city. If anyone knew Carl D. Williams, Steven Owens, or saw activity around that house in early April 1990, please share what might help clarify what happened.
