COMING SOON FROM SHERIFF ALFONZO WILLIAMS
NOV 2020
MURDER IN AUGUSTA
The Mary Colley Stewart Case
On May 12, 1994, Mary Colley Stewart was a 37-year-old Medicare Specialist at the Augusta, Georgia Department of Family and Children’s Services. Robert Eugene Fielding, 43, was a paroled killer who worked there as a janitor. Alfonzo Williams was a detective for the Augusta Police Department, a man of deep faith assigned to missing persons and child-abuse cases. He had just turned 23. The three lives were about to become inextricably linked – one was about to come to a tragic end.
Using case files, interrogation transcripts, crime-scene photos, and new interviews, “Murder in Augusta” goes in-depth into a heinous crime and the subsequent investigation and trial which shocked and fascinated Augusta over a quarter-century ago. From the initial “Missing Person” report to the grisly discovery which turned the disappearance into a murder case, you’ll follow Detective Williams (now sheriff of Burke County, GA) through every step of the investigation which culminated in Fielding’s arrest and conviction, learning along the way that there truly is no such thing as “an open and shut case.”
