25 YEARS LATER, Teresa Ann Bailey Black, 45, is on trial for the 1999 murder of her 6-year-old son, William DaShawn Hamilton, whose remains were found in a wooded area near a cemetery on February 26th, 1999. He was known as "Clifton Doe" since 1999, was wearing a blue and white plaid shirt, red denim jeans, brown Timberland boots, and was estimated to be between age 5 and 7.
What was the break in the case? A tip was called into the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children from a someone who knew Teresa and William back in 1998 and had been searching for William ever since. After 23 years, Ava’s tip called into NCMEC gave new direction to the investigation. Our team followed up, researching, analyzing and trying to connect the pieces to help investigators track down William’s family. With DNA work provided by our partner, Bode Technology, William’s identity was officially confirmed. At last he had his name! And now we watch the trial to see if his mother will be held accountable for what it is she is alleged to have done.
Teresa was arrested in June 2022 in Phoenix, Arizona, and was extradited to Atlanta, Georgia, where she is on trial. She has been charged with two counts of Felony Murder, two counts of Cruelty to Children, Aggravated Assault and Concealing the Death of Another. Her trial is set to start on January 2nd, 2024.
The Dekalb County DA’s Office is seeking information from anyone who knew Teresa Ann Bailey Black or her son, William DaShawn Hamilton, between 1998-1999 in the metro Atlanta area. If you have any information, please all their cold case tip line at: 404-371-2444. If you have any information, please call 1-800-THE-LOST (1-800-543-5678) or the DeKalb Medical Examiner at 1-404-508-3500.
