CHAOS erupted in Charlotte, North Carolina, in the early 1990s after several Black women ended up dead.

Where is Henry Louis Wallace now?
From May 1992 to March 1994, nine African-American women were raped and murdered throughout the Charlotte area, causing mass panic in the community.
It took police two years to finally track down the culprit, who was later identified as Henry Louis Wallace, America’s first known African-American serial killer.
At the time, police were not searching for a serial killer, only someone who had committed a few murders.

“All we knew at the time was that we were looking at a person who committed three separate murders,” former detective Garry McFadden said in an interview with NBC Charlotte.
“The attention and resources weren’t focused towards [the murders] they were focused on war on drugs. It was a tough time in Queen City… People were afraid to come out; everything was chaotic and violent,” he continued.
However, a fingerprint and a confession blew the case open and helped lead to a conviction.
On January 7, 1997, Wallace was found guilty of murdering nine women and later sentenced to death.
