This recidivist armed career criminal is one more gun-toter who will now be removed from our community for at least 15 years.

We are committed to removing child sex offenders from our community and to protecting our children from those who would do them harm.

All 4 of these AUSAs are career prosecutors with unquestioned reputations for effective prosecution & sound legal and ethical judgment. I have full faith & confidence in them to help me effectively lead the USAO WDTN, & I am proud to appoint them to these important positions.

As a threatening felon in possession of a firearm, Williams presented a danger to the public in multiple ways. The 8-plus year sentence imposed in this case rightly punishes him for his recidivist behavior, removes him from the community, & makes Milan & Gibson Co a safer place.

There is and ought to be a significant consequence for such recidivist criminal behavior, and this is one more armed career criminal removed from our streets for a long time.

In 2021, U.S. Attorney Michael Dunavant was archived when I left the DOJ. I’m back, and we have reactivated the account to provide you with information about the priorities, initiatives, and cases in WDTNNews. Please give it a follow. 🇺🇸

We must return to first principles: so long as a lawbreaker threatens the good order of society, he must be restrained. Wicked people exist. Incarceration is justified by incapacitation alone. Give prison a chance. city-journal.org/article/james-…

President Donald J. Trump and Attorney General Pam Bondi, along with the U.S. Marshals Service and the Memphis Safe Task Force, are making Memphis safe again! I’m honored to be back and part of the DOJ team. 🇺🇸

In October, Memphis saw the single lowest monthly total crime numbers since 2001. This is thanks to the Memphis Safe Task Force, President Donald J. Trump, Attorney General Pamela Bondi, FBI Director Kash Patel - and the results speak for themselves.

Within the short span of 25 days, this recidivist violent offender’s selfish and impulsive greed terrorized multiple victims across our city – and will rightly earn him a long sentence in a federal prison.

Wonderful to celebrate the confirmation of Mike Dunavant for U.S. Attorney for the Western District of Tennessee. I told Donald J. Trump that there is no one more qualified for this job, and there is no doubt that he will continue to help us Make Memphis Safe Again!
