Williams was 68 at the time of his death. The cause of his death was listed as respiratory complications due to a remote stab wound of the torso, according to the state Medical Examiner's Office. The manner of his death was listed as a homicide.
Marion will be held in Georgia as a fugitive from justice. He is pending extradition back to Bridgeport where he will be charged with murder. His bond has been set at $1.5 million.
