Father Accused of Killing His Daughter Almost a Year Ago

In March 2021, a report was filed with the Dothan Police Department for a missing person, 38-year-old Tomekia Tiffany Williams.  Tomekia was from Jacksonville, FL but was last known to be in Dothan, AL.  All leads were exhausted in the investigation of her disappearance at that time.

On February 9, 2022, skeletal remains were found in in the 2000 block of Johntown Road in Ozark, AL.  Believing those remains could possibly be Tomekia Tiffany Williams, DNA testing was completed by the Alabama Department of Forensic Sciences, confirming it was her.

Ozark Police Department spoke to the last person Tomekia was known to be with, her father, Orlando Williams of Dothan.  Information obtained led to investigators from Dothan Police Department joining Ozark Police Department in the joint investigation.  During the investigation, it was learned that after the death of Tomekia, Orlando Williams drove around with Tomekia’s body in his vehicle before dumping her body in the wooded area in Ozark.

As a result of the investigation, the Dothan Police Department charged 64 year old Orlando Williams of Dothan with one count of murder for the death of Tomekia Tiffany Williams.  His bond was set at $1.5 million.  The Ozark Police Department will have additional charges against Orlando Williams.

The Dothan Police Department would like to thank the Ozark Police Department for their assistance in this investigation which has helped bring closure to the family of Tomekia Tiffany Williams.
