Allen Williams

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Allen Williams (born October 1st, 1966) is an American police officer from Arkansas, best known for his service on international assignments with the International Police.

Williams began his law enforcement career with the Arkadelphia police department, leaving there in 1999. He is best known as an original member of the 'UNTAET Crime Scene Detachment' (ca 1999) in East Timor, during which he took part in the exhumation of several hundred victims of homicide. Major cases he was involved in included the Liquiçá Church Massacre. Williams' intelligence information gathered through the course of his service in East Timor is often credited with the identification and location of many of the murder suspects in the numerous massacres that were inflicted on the East Timorese people before and during 1999. While serving there he worked closely with Karl Clark, who later supervised all operations for the Serious Crimes Unit.

Williams also served on overseas assignments with the International Police in Kosovo and Iraq. He was raised in Amity, Arkansas, located in Clark County.
