In November of 2021 the Dothan Police Department received a complaint from a victim alleging a private investigator in Dothan had taken advantage of them. As that was being investigated, an additional victim made a similar report. While investigating these claims additional victims came forward making similar allegations.
The facts and circumstances known about each victim was presented to the Houston County Grand Jury. The Houston County Grand Jury determined that there was sufficient evidence to move forward with prosecution and issued four indictments for Theft of Property by Deception 1st degree.
While the grand jury was convening, before the indictments were returned, another victim came forward reporting similar circumstances. For this case, a warrant for Theft of Property by Deception 1st degree was obtained.
On Monday, May 1, 2023, law enforcement executed search warrants at the residence of the private investigator in Wicksburg, Alabama as well as the office used for his business on West Main Street in Dothan.
While executing the search warrant in Wicksburg, the suspect, William (Bill) Lewis Robison Jr., 55 years old of Wicksburg, Alabama was taken into custody. He was booked into the Houston County Jail. His bond was set at $150,000.00.
This is an ongoing investigation.
