The Atlanta Child Murders refer to a series of 29 killings that occurred between 1979 and 1981 in Atlanta, Georgia. The victims, African American children and young adults, were abducted, and their bodies were discovered in various locations around the city. The case drew national attention due to the high number of victims and the fear it instilled in the community.

Wayne Williams, a 23-year-old African American man, was eventually convicted for two of the murders in 1982. He was suspected of being responsible for the majority of the murders, though some critics argue that not all the cases were definitively linked to him. Williams was sentenced to life imprisonment, and many of the cases remain controversial and debated, with some believing that there were multiple perpetrators or that evidence against Williams was insufficient. The case had a significant impact on Atlanta, influencing law enforcement practices and highlighting issues of race and justice in America.
