MOBILE, Alabama – A Mobile County jury has convicted Tyrone Williams of 2 counts of Domestic Violence announces the Mobile County District Attorney’s Office.
This morning, a jury of his peers found Tyrone Williams guilty of Domestic Violence 1st/Burglary and Domestic Violence 1stAssault. Prosecutors with the Mobile County District Attorney’s Office, Coy Morgan and Katherine Wick presented testimony that Tyrone Williams, after a night of drinking on September 4, 2023, kicked in his girlfriend’s front door and shot her with a .45 pistol in her stomach, in front of her three children. The victim suffered life-threatening injuries but survived and was in court this week to courageously face the defendant.
