Michael Robinson, a 38-year-old African American man, was found shot to death on October 8, 2004, in Lauderhill, Florida. His body was discovered inside an apartment in the Inverrary section where 25-year-old Tanisha Stobbs, who worked with Robinson as a cook at Donna’s Caribbean Restaurant in Lauderdale Lakes, was also found dead. Robinson had been at Stobbs’ apartment to help her move out when the shootings occurred.
Investigators identified Tanisha Stobbs’ ex-boyfriend, Omar Williams, 36, as the primary suspect, concluding the killings stemmed from a jealous confrontation after Williams discovered Robinson and Stobbs together. Williams fled the scene and remained at large for years; the case received national attention through multiple features on America’s Most Wanted. A tip eventually led authorities to Williams, who was located living under an alias in Dallas, later fled to Orlando, and was arrested on May 25, 2011. He was charged with two counts of first-degree murder and reportedly confessed.
If anyone knew Michael Robinson, Tanisha Stobbs, or saw suspicious activity in the Inverrary area on or around October 8, 2004, please come forward with information.
