Dr. Williams grew up hard and fast, selling crack and weed at 13, and having two kids, dropping out, and being homeless by 17, never knew his biological father. Yet, football provided a way out, so he eventually did enough to attend and to play football for Methodist University, in Fayetteville, NC. Yet, he was kicked off the team, and he quickly affiliated himself with the BLOODS until he almost shot someone in Durham, NC (January 1999). That was the turning point...the moment he decided to unmask and to join the United States Air Force. Dr. Williams began to recognize true love and to approach life from a more open-minded perspective; and he has never looked back.
