Girlboss Lawyer on the Lam Nabbed After Motel Fight With BF
After almost three months on the run, a San Diego attorney once praised as local “woman of the year” has been arrested in Washington state after allegedly bilking clients out of hundreds of thousands of dollars.
And police reports obtained by The Daily Beast provide new details into what Kelly DuFord Williams was doing while on the lam 1,300 miles away from home, including promoting music concerts, finding summer love, and pretending to be pregnant.
In an interview with Kirkland Police officers on Monday, after she and her new boyfriend, Joseph White, were arrested in a Motel 6 on reports of a domestic dispute, Williams revealed that she had been in the Seattle area since March. The relationship, she told police, quickly turned sour by White’s alleged “controlling” behavior, which she said included rules against her using social media, contacting other males, and that he held onto her ID and credit cards.
