\u201cYou go to somebody in that group and you say, \u2018I want so-and-so dead.\u2019 They don\u2019t care who it is, they don\u2019t want to know the reason why. All they want to know is, \u2018Will you give me portraits of dead presidents on green paper called money?’ If you can come up with the money, they will kill somebody for you,\u201d the source said, according to the paper.<\/p>\n

The paper reported being told by police that Williams initially denied any knowledge of the slayings, but when confronted with evidence admitted\u00a0knowing of the crimes and said others had conspired to make him the \u201cfall guy.”<\/p>\n
