Crime

Williams killed a 74-year-old woman and her 53-year-old disabled daughter during a robbery of their home. His victims were Maria Elena Corrieo and Maria Eugenia Roberts

Maria Elena Corrieo, age 74, lived with her disabled daughter, Gina Roberts, age 53. Mrs. Corrieo owned a restaurant in Concord, and did not trust banks. When the restaurant closed each evening she would take the paper currency home in her apron. Periodically she would consolidate the proceeds into $100 bills, which she kept in her car.

The victims were discovered by another of Mrs. Corrieo's daughters, Lili Williams, on August 16, 1995. Williams had last seen Corrieo and Roberts the previous evening at the restaurant. Several times the following day she called the restaurant and was concerned to learn her mother was not there. Williams and her ex-husband drove to Corrieo's house, where they found her car parked at an unusual angle and items lying on the ground nearby. The front door of the house was open. Williams found Corrieo and Roberts on the floor. After hugging and trying to comfort them, Williams realized they were dead. The phone lines had been cut, but Williams's ex-husband was able to flag down a police officer.
