The family of a teenager believed to be the youngest person ever to die in the pennsylvania electric chair is heading into a Delaware County courthouse this week. Theyre trying to overturn the 1931 murder conviction of alexander mc Clay Williams. New evidence uncovered by a stranger more than 80 years later may proof the boy never did it. Chris oconnell reports. There was no reason for him to die. Thats a terrible thing. Reporter the pain is still fresh 86 years later. Suzie Williams Carter was just an infant when her brother alexander mc Clay Williams made headlines in 1931. The youngest person known to be put to death in pennsylvanias electric chair at the age of 16. He was the oldest of 13 children. She never new him. Well i always thought that he didnt do it. My mother said he didnt do it. Reporter while serving four years at what is now known as the glenn mills school a facility for juvenile delinquents, williams was conicted of the bloody murder of 33yearold house matron vita robare stabbed 47 times ice pick in the cottage where she lived with her husband who taught farming at the school. Williams was doing chores unsupervised at the time of the murder but according to records, he quickly confessed to the crime. He was arres arrested october 1h of 1930 and executed june 8th, 1931, just 243 days later. Why was this kid, um, kind of jew additionally lynched. Reporter but now an unlikely stranger has come to clear williams name. Originally my goal to find out why would he do this and i thought, you know maybe theres a Mental Illness issue. Now you think hes totally innocent. Positively. Theres not adown doubt in my mind. Reporter sam lemon has been researching this case for 30 years. His great grandfather William Ridley was the attorney who originally represented williams during his murder trial. The image of him sitting in many electric chair with a hood over his head i cant get that out of my mine. That haunts me. Like this story haunts me. Reporter lemons search for justice took him to green lawn cemetery. We met him while he was searchinsearching the overgrowns for williams gravesite but so far theres no record the 16yearold ever got a headstone.

Forged documents, changing williams age and robares death certificate naming williams as the killer. Written in different color ink days before the boy was even arrested. And the headlines of the day, say the crime was committed by adult an bloody hand print on the wall but williams never had a spec of blood on him that day. Anybody now knows that you stab somebody all that many times its a crime of passion. Reporter so if williams didnt do it, who did . Well the family now believes the killer is actually the victims husband fred robare and they say they have the evidence to prove it. In stunning revelation not known until recently, they learned sight at a robare actually divorced her husband nine years earlier in michigan. The reason she stated in records extreme cruelty. The belief robare killed his wife in a fit of rage and framed it on the closest delinquent he could find and dont take their word for it. My ancestor got away with murder. Reporter we tracked down theresa schmitters great niece of fred robare op the phone from michigan. Her uncle came from a abusive and alcoholic family and after doing her own family research, she even believes alexander mc Clay Williams was framed. We had a lot of troubles in our family. Lots of times they made the comment that we apparently had been cursed. I feel like the best way to move forward as family is to correct the past. And this would correct an injustice from the past which would make us better people. Reporter on friday, decedents of alexander mc Clay Williams and the attorney who represented him will come back to the very same media courthouse where he was couldn convicted of murder 86 years old later to try to clear his name. Its also a stain on the court. Its a stain on the honor of the court. Reporter their goal to clear williams name for his last surviving immediate family member.
