Goodbye Bill Cox
Review by Kim Cantrell
Jacqueline “Annette” Williams, 31, already had three children. And a tubal ligation.
But she wanted a baby with her boyfriend, Feddell Caffey; and he only had two rules: it must be a boy and be light-skinned like him.
When Annette learned that her Caucasian friend Debra was pregnant with baby father by Verne Ward, a black man, she knew she had found just the baby to meet Caffey’s requirements.
On Thursday, November 16, 2009, Williams, along with Caffey and Ward, crudely murdered Debra and ripped her unborn baby from her womb.
But there could be no witnesses.
Samantha, Debra’s 10-year-old, daughter put up a fight but was defenseless against her killer.
Joshua, Debra’s 7-year-old son, however, hid until he thought his mother’s murderers had left.
But he was wrong.
Snatched by Williams’ and left with another couple under false pretenses, Joshua would tell his babysitters the same story over and over: Annette, Feddell and Verne had killed his mother and sister – calling them by name.
He would pay for it with his life.
Yet his story touches the heart of a hardened gang member who, for the first time in his life, would intentionally make contact with police; essentially assisting them and prosecutors in getting justice for the Evans’ family.
Special Delivery is a gut-wrenching tale of a story all too common in these times, but with a sickening twist of those willing to kill small children in the name of protecting themselves. Cowards!
Sadly, author Bill G. Cox passed away shortly after finishing this book. True crime readers will appreciate the one last, well-written, thoroughly researched book he left with us.
