render. On August 6, 1980, a federal arrest warrant was issued by the United States District Court,
Middle District of Florida, after Taylor was charged
with unlawful flight to avoid prosecution.
Michelle S. Klimt, special agent in charge of the
FBI Jacksonville Division, would like to thank the
FBI Charlotte Division, Guilford County Sheriff’s Office, Greensboro Police Department, Eden Police
Department, Winston-Salem Police Department,
Marion County Sheriff’s Office, Ocala Police Department Safe Streets Task Force, and the United
States Attorney’s Office for the Middle District of
North Carolina for their assistance.

“William Claybourne Taylor thought he could avoid
taking responsibility for this horrible crime, but our
agents continued an exhaustive search year after
year,” said Klimt. “To echo the words of former FBI
Director J. Edgar Hoover, ‘the FBI always gets its
man.’ We thank our law enforcement partners for
their assistance and hope this news brings comfort
to the families of Taylor’s victims.”
Taylor is being held in the Guilford County, North
Carolina detention center. The defendant is presumed innocent unless and until he is proven guilty
beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.
