The Petition for commutation is a tissue of lies, and needs editing. See

Removal of Virginia Case
Hi, you deleted a case inserted, telling it was a different case, beacause held un Virginia. As it may be difficult to make the connection, I add a new text about the same case. Please chexk the names before to delete it, and apologize for my broken english, if any. Regards, Deuxtroy (talk) 8:48 pm, Today (UTC−5)

Yes, I did delete the case, and, as my edit summary noted, it was not the same Terry Williams. Since the case I deleted dealt with a completely different murderer, a completely different state (Virginia), and was completely unrelated to the Pennsylvania Terry Williams, it was not appropriate for that article. Regards, GregJackP Boomer! 8:55 pm, Today (UTC−5) Please, just read the text before to delete. It is the same Terry Williams, the same murdered Amos Norwood. Virginia Court is a court for state collateral relief, that's why. Regards, Deuxtroy (talk) 8:58 pm, Today (UTC−5) No, it is not the same Terry Williams. If you look at the text of the case, the only thing in common is that both murderers are named Terry Williams. The case you cite is a United States Supreme Court Case. The prior history path is as follows: Williams v. Taylor, 529 U.S. 362 (2000), Williams v. Taylor, 163 F.3d 860 (4th Cir. 1998) Williams v. Taylor, CA-97-1527-A (E.D. Vir. 1997)(not reported) Williams v. Warden, 487 S.E.2d 194 (Vir. 1997) Williams v. Commonwealth, 360 S.E.2d 361 (Vir. 1987)

These are all Virginia cases dealing with the murder of Harris Thomas Stone in Danville, Virginia by Terry Williams (of Virginia). The article is about the murders of Herbert Hamilton and Amos Norwood by Terry Williams (of Pennsylvania). The cases have nothing to do with one another. BTW, I did read the ref you had added before I deleted it, and FWIW, no Virginia court has jurisdiction over a Pennsylvania case. Regards. GregJackP Boomer! 9:17 pm, Today (UTC−5)
