R&B legend, Christopher Williams, probably wishes he was “dreaming” right about now, but according to law enforcement, “promises, promises” he didn’t keep and now he’s reportedly in more trouble. Unfortunately, this would make his second legal issue in the past 6 months.
Why Christopher Williams Is Reportedly Wanted Now
There’s good news and bad news about this. We’ll start with the good first: Good news is that although this is said to be his second legal issue for theft in 6 months, it stems from just ONE theft case (and not two, thank goodness). Bad news is that he’s reportedly officially a wanted man in the case, after what has just transpired.
Reports have just surfaced that the “Am I Dreaming” singer was a no-show in his petty theft court case last week. Therefore, a judge has reportedly issued a bench warrant for Williams’ arrest. It’s being said that he won’t have to worry about bounty hunters coming to sniff him out -like they did ex “Family Matters”/Disney star, Orlando Brown, a few days ago- HOWEVER, Christopher better pray that he does NOT get stopped by cops…ever. If he does, he will be hauled off to jail with the quickness, according to reports.
Williams’ Prior Arrest Details
So what does all this legal trouble stem from, you ask? It’s from the case Christopher Williams caught 6 months ago, in October 2017, when he allegedly stole a pair of headphones out of a Kohl’s store. Yep, you read that right and I truly wish this was one of my random jokes, but it’s not folks. Dude was really arrested for stealing $99.99 headphones unfortunately. Here’s what we previously reported on that:
In case you missed our prior report, TMZ originally posted the news on October 3, 2017, along with Williams’ mugshot and here’s what the report stated:
Via TMZ: Sources tell us the incident went down Saturday at a Kohl’s in McDonough, Georgia where Chris walked in with a tote bag and wearing a baseball cap. We’re told he went to the back of the store and grabbed a pair of JBL headphones … priced at $99.99. We’re told he threw the headphones into his bag and tried walking out. When security stopped him, we’re told Chris said he simply forgot he bagged them. By then, cops were called and arrested him. The “I’m Dreamin'” singer was arrested and booked for petty theft, a misdemeanor. He was released after a couple hours.
Christopher Williams Clapped Back At Media
Following the massive coverage of his petty theft charges, C. Williams clapped back at all media outlets that reported the news, I assume that includes ILOSM as well. Also, anyone else who shared the info on social media, y’all can probably get it too, according to Williams…I think.
In his Instagram clap-back, Williams never denied the theft incident happened. He did however, specifically seem to target TMZ, by referring to them as “TMFlea” (probably because they broke the story). He also took aim at the many reports about the details of his arrest being circulated on social media, radio, and television:

@christopherwilliams: Im coming TRUST SUCKER! I dont have to see it on IG or Twitter, TMFlea, radio,tv etc I have more than a mustard seed and God will get the Glory… #dietyloversbeware
Hopefully, Christopher Williams can get this matter resolved soon and get back to what he loves- singing and acting. By the way, if you thought his performing days were over in the 90s and his acting gigs were wrapped with “New Jack City,” think again! C. Williams has steadily been out here puttin’ in work, starring in various successful musicals and concerts across the country.
Anywho, pardon me ILOSM family, while I go blast my “Am I Dreaming” CD…yeah I said ‘CD’…I’m Old School and proud of it!
