Hi and welcome to Undisclosed, The State v. Dennis Perry.

This is episode three.

And this series is about how a double homicide in Camden County, Georgia, turned into a cold case,

and how 15 years later, Dennis Perry was convicted of the crime.

My name is Robbie Achadri.

I'm an attorney and author of Adnan Story,

and I'm here with my colleagues, Susan Simpson and Colin Miller.

Hi, this is Susan Simpson.

I'm an attorney in Washington, D.C., and I blog at the View from L.L.2.

Hi, this is Colin Miller.

I'm an associate dean and professor at the University of South Carolina School of Law,

and I blog at Ev-croft blog. As a teenager, Dennis Perry moved around a lot.

Mostly, he lived with his mother, but sometimes he lived with other relatives as well.

Mostly, he was in Georgia, though in his ninth grade year he was briefly enrolled in high

school in South Carolina. After leaving South Carolina, he ended up with his grandparents in

Camden County and attended high school there for a couple years before moving back to Atlanta

with his mother. But then, when Dennis found out he was going to be held back at his new high school,

instead of going into the same grade he left at, he decided to drop out instead and started working.

That's how he ended up meeting Clayton Tomlinson.

He got a job working at McDonald's doing maintenance.

He was doing the maintenance after we shut down, maintenance, cleaning, oil vats, and all that kind of stuff.

And I was working at McDonald's.
