Eastpointe Man Held Without Bond for Kidnapping Sexual Assault of Minor

Andrew Logan Williams, a 52-year-old man from Eastpointe, Michigan, has been charged with kidnapping and sexually assaulting a 12-year-old girl near his home. After the assault, Williams allegedly took explicit photos of the victim, who managed to escape and seek help from a neighbor. Williams fled to New York but was apprehended and extradited back to Michigan to face charges including two counts of first-degree criminal sexual conduct, kidnapping, and child sexually abusive activity. Prosecutors have emphasized the severity of the crimes and the defendant's prior sex offender status, leading to Williams being denied bond due to being a flight risk and danger to the community. If convicted, he faces up to life in prison. Authorities have vowed to aggressively pursue justice while maintaining the presumption of innocence until proven guilty.
