Authorities in Atlantic County announced that on Wednesday, March 19, Eric Williams, 56, of Atlantic City, NJ, was sentenced by the Honorable Pamela D’Arcy, J.S.C., to a 12-year term in New Jersey State Prison, subject to the No Early Release Act for first-degree aggravated sexual assault.
Upon release, Williams must also register as a sex offender under Megan’s Law and will be subject to parole supervision for life, Atlantic County officials say. 
According to ACPO officials, on May 19, 2022, Williams committed a sexual assault of an adult female in the lobby of the bus terminal in Atlantic City.
Atlantic County authorities stated the defendant rectally penetrated the victim with both his fingers and penis.
The victim was asleep at the time of the assault; however, the offense was captured on the terminal’s surveillance camera, which ultimately led to Williams’ arrest, Atlantic County authorities said.
