Missing From: Naples, Florida
Missing: January 12, 2004
Age at Disappearance: 27
Height: 6′ 0″
Weight: 175
Hair: Sandy brown
Eyes: Brown
Distinguishing Characteristics: Scars, Marks, Tattoos: African American male. Terrance wore his hair in long dreadlocks at the time of his disappearance. His ears are pierced. He has a vertical surgical scar on his right shoulder and a dark birthmark on the side of his abdomen. Williams has three tattoos: the initial “T” in italic above the left side of his chest, the initials “ET” in square block lettering on his outer right shoulder, and his name, “Terrance,” in red ink with blue highlights on his left forearm. Williams’s right upper front tooth has a gold crown with the letter “T” in it, and the tooth to the right of that one has a solid gold cap with the letter T.
Details of Disappearance: Terrance was last seen in Naples, Florida on January 12, 2004. A Collier County sheriff’s deputy, Corporal Steven Henry Calkins, claims he stopped him on the road. Williams was driving a white Cadillac, which was having engine problems. He did not have a valid license or insurance, his registration had expired, and the vehicle belonged to someone else. He could potentially have been cited for six moving violations. Calkins says he did not cite Williams for anything, but dropped him off at a Circle K convenience store in the vicinity of Wiggins Pass Road and US 41. Williams told him he worked at the store. Although a press release by the sheriff’s department maintained that no one at the Circle K store ever had contact with Calkins, a Circle K employee stated in a press interview that she saw both Williams and Calkins that morning. She says Calkins used the store’s bathroom, and Williams filled a container with gasoline and left the store alone. Calkins later stated he left Williams at the store, returned to the Cadillac to have it towed, then called the Circle K store and discovered Williams did not really work there. However, his cellular phone records do not show the call being placed, and store employees do not remember it either. Oddly, Calkins was also the last person to see another man, Felipe Santos, who disappeared in October 2003. He got into a minor car accident and Calkins reportedly gave him a ride to a Circle K convenience store. He has never been heard from again.
