Georgia – In a chilling case of premeditated violence motivated by jealousy in Georgia, a 35-year-old man named K. Williams has had his bond request denied after being charged with murder in the execution-style killing of his ex-girlfriend’s 36-year-old boyfriend, C. Pitter. Williams is accused of malice murder in Pitter’s death on July 6, which occurred on the doorstep of his girlfriend’s home.
Williams is charged with malice murder, a serious crime involving intentional and unjustifiable homicide. Prosecutors claim the violence was not spontaneous, but rather the result of months of harassment and a planned setup.
Surveillance data and phone records show that he hid in the bushes outside the woman’s home for hours, including the night of the shooting, while waiting for Pitter. On that fateful night, Williams allegedly ambushed Pitter, shooting him ten times on the doorstep—evidence of both planning and extreme aggressiveness.
This disturbingly planned act was not isolated. Prosecutors described a disturbing escalation of harassment in the months preceding the murder. Williams allegedly shot at Pitter’s car while visiting his girlfriend and broke into her home just one week before the fatal shooting.
Cell phone data and camera footage also revealed Williams’ vehicle speeding away from the scene shortly after the shooting, linking him directly to the crime.
A judge quickly denied Williams’ request for bond. During a virtual hearing, the judge determined that his release posed a threat to public safety, particularly given his history of stalking and violence. Pitter’s family was relieved that Williams would remain behind bars. The victim’s sister expressed the family’s concerns, stating, “You never know who a person is or what can make a person snap—it’s kind of scary.”
Pitter was remembered as a gifted artist, a kind friend, and a loving son. According to his obituary, he provided “light, laughter, and warmth to everyone around him” and left a creative legacy through his music and community contributions. His unexpected death sent shockwaves through friends and acquaintances, who remembered his kindness, drive, and positive impact.
Williams’ trial has yet to be scheduled, and the path to justice is still unfolding. However, authorities have confirmed the gravity of the allegations by keeping him in custody without bond. This case is a stark reminder of how jealousy and unchecked anger can lead to deadly acts of violence.
It also emphasizes the legal system’s role in detecting and intervening in patterns of abuse and stalking before tragedy strikes. Williams remains in jail as the community mourns a beloved young man whose life was cut short in front of the place where he sought refuge—his girlfriend’s home.
