The news item was published in October 2025 and notes a conviction with sentencing to follow.[1]
- Alexander William Williamson (the chemist born 1824) passed away in 1904; he is best known for the Williamson ether synthesis. This historical figure is different from the contemporary person in the news item above.[2]
