KALIYA WILLIAMS (and Mother) - 8 yo (2010)/ Convicted: Mother's BF; Amahal Lynch - Brooklyn NYC
Police arrested a man Monday on charges that he strangled Shakeeman
Elliot of Brooklyn, and her 8-year-old daughter, and left their bodies
in a bathtub partially filled with water. The
New York Police Department said detectives arrested 24-year-old Amahal
Lynch on charges of second-degree murder. Lynch had known
the 29-year-old mother police said, but they did not disclose a motive.
Family members said the suspect and Elliot had dated
casually but were not a couple.
The medical examiner had
ruled earlier Monday that the deaths of the mother and daughter,
Kaliya
Williams, were homicides. There are reports Lynch confessed to strangling the
victims. Officers found the bodies Sunday while
investigating a possible burglary at a
fourth-floor apartment in the
Sheepshead Bay section of Brooklyn. A friend,
Tobias Stuart, said there had been no previous signs of trouble.
"She
was a loving mother," Stuart told the Daily News. "It was just her and
her daughter all the time."

The police charged a 20-year-old man on Monday with strangling a
Brooklyn woman and her 8-year-old daughter, who were found dead on
Sunday in a bathtub in their apartment in Sheepshead Bay.
The suspect, Amahal Lynch of Stanley Avenue in East New York, Brooklyn,
was charged with two counts of murder. Mr. Lynch did not answers reporters’ questions as he was escorted to a
car to be taken to his arraignment in Brooklyn Criminal Court on Monday
night.
The police identified the woman as Shakeema Elliot, 29, and her daughter
as Kaliya Williams. They were found early Sunday when police officers
responded to a report of a possible burglary in a fourth-floor apartment
at 2231 Batchelder Street, in the Nostrand Houses. The door was shut,
but not locked, when the officers arrived about 4:20 a.m., the police
said. The woman and her daughter were found naked in a bathtub partly
filled with water, and pills were strewn around the bathroom, the police
said. The bodies appeared to have been moved from another, unidentified area
to the tub, and the scene staged to look like a murder-suicide, a police
spokesman said Monday night. On Monday, the office of the chief
medical examiner ruled their deaths homicides, said Ellen Borakove, a
spokeswoman for the medical examiner. An autopsy report, completed in
the afternoon, found that both victims had died of strangulation. The police described Mr. Lynch as an acquaintance of Ms. Elliot’s. They
said he was an employee of the New York City Housing Authority, although
they did not say in which department, or whether he worked in the
Nostrand Houses, which have 16 six-story buildings with 1,146
apartments. Outside the Nostrand Houses on Monday night, a makeshift memorial with
glowing candles illuminated cards and letters mourning the victims.

Amahal Lynch admits slaying ex-flame, her daughter and trying to make it look like murder-suicide

Naked bodies of mom and daughter, 8, found in bathtub of Brooklyn home
A Brooklyn man confessed Monday night to strangling an 8-year-old girl and her mother and then setting up the crime scene to look like a murder-suicide, cops said.
Amahal Lynch, 20, was hit with double-murder charges after autopsies revealed foul play and he admitted his role in the deaths of Shakeema Elliott, 29, and Kaliya Williams.
"He made it look like a suicide," said a police source, citing Lynch's videotaped confession that he strangled Elliott during an argument before killing her daughter.
Lynch, a city housing employee who once had a romantic relationship with Elliott, told prosecutors he put the bodies in the bathtub and then scattered pills on the bathroom floor.
"I just don't understand, why kill both? If you want to hurt Shakeema, why do the little girl, too? She was a baby," said Elliott's distraught cousin, Madeline Motley, 57, of North Babylon, L.I.
Their naked bodies were found Sunday morning in their Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn, apartment by cops responding to a burglary complaint.
When officers arrived at the Batchelder St. address in the Nostrand Houses, they found the front door ajar, a police source said.
Detectives found no obvious signs of trauma on either victim, the source said.
But late yesterday the city medical examiner said Elliott and Kaliya died from "asphyxia due to neck compressions."
Even before autopsy results were announced, cops picked up Lynch for questioning.
The news of the double-murder arrest left heartbroken relatives and neighbors outraged that someone would kill the doting single mother and her innocent daughter, who was nicknamed Le Le.
"It's just a total shock," said Kaliya's godmother, Wanda Sunpce, 25, of Brooklyn.
Sunpce said she never believed Elliott would purposely harm herself and her little girl.
"I just saw her a month ago. She seemed fine," Sunpce said of Elliott. "She did not bother anyone. She did not talk of anyone bothering her. All she did was love her daughter."
Sunpce said Elliott, who was unemployed, had a rough upbringing, but persevered to become a good mother. Her birth mother gave her up for adoption when she was 5 and her adoptive mother died last year of stomach complications. Her adoptive father died several years ago after suffering a stroke, Sunpce said.
Elliott kept in contact with her birth mother, Sharon Elliott of South Carolina, who was headed to New York last night, Sunpce said.

Brooklyn thug who strangled ex-girlfriend and her daughter gets 40 years to life
Prosecutors said Amahal Lynch sexually abused girl before slay then arranged bodies in bathtub to look like murder-suicide
By Oren Yaniv / NEW YORK DAILY NEWS
Wednesday, April 18, 2012, 3:12 PM
heartless Brooklyn man who strangled a former flame and her young daughter and arranged their bodies to look like a murder-suicide was sentenced Wednesday to 40 years to life.
Relatives of victims Shakeema Elliott, 29, and Kaliya Williams, 8, sobbed in a Brooklyn courtroom throughout the emotional hearing, calling for the killer, 22-year-old Amahal Lynch, to at least apologize.
"We are all hurting," Williams's aunt, Delores Smith Johnson, 57, said on behalf of the family. "It's how they died. It was by someone’s hands going around their necks."
Lynch, a city housing employee, admitted to the May 2010 slayings. He strangled Elliott, then sexually abused and killed her daughter. Lynch later explained he didn't want the young girl to grow up an orphan, a source said.
After the murders, Lynch put the bodies in the bathtub and scattered pills on the floor.
By taking the plea, Lynch avoided a sentence of life without parole.
When it was his time to speak, the killer took his time.
"He should say something," a victim's relative yelled out from the gallery.
"People make mistakes," Lynch finally mumbled. "God is good, you know. I repented, you know."
