Former Dean Dies
Man Killed Leaving Comedy Show
C ontinueD from P age 2
adult female shooting victim was
transported to a separate hospital in
a separate car. While at the hospital,
Jones, was determined to have died.
The other two victims sustained se-
rious but non-life-threatening inju-
ries, police said.
About a half hour earlier, that
same evening, the comedian Wil-
liams had allegedly assaulted his
town car driver at Portland Inter-
national Airport after an argument
about transporting him and his dog
to the concert.
On Monday Williams plead-
ed not guilty to the assault charge.
That same day, his alleged victim
and limo driver, Wali Kanani, filed
a $76,000 lawsuit against the co-
median, which stated that Williams
was insisting his German shepherd
sit in the front passenger seat. When
the driver told Williams he was
uncomfortable with that, Williams
punched him in the face and called
him a “piece of (expletive)” and
“white trash,” the suit said.
Kanani was then chased by Wil-
liams and his dog to the terminal,
where the driver locked the glass
door to keep them away, court doc-
uments said. He suffered cuts and
swelling to the face, and was treat-
ed at a local hospital, police said,
while Williams, his dog, and his
colleagues, departed in a separate
vehicle.
Williams was located and appre-
hended Saturday morning. In ad-
dition to the fourth-degree assault
charge, an outstanding warrant from
Georgia also kept the Emmy-win-
ning comedian and actor, whose le-
gal name is Mica Sierra Williams,
lodged at the Multnomah County
Jail.

Ollee received her doctorate in educational leadership
from Seattle University in 1988, a master’s degree in edu-
cation from Walla Walla College and a bachelor’s degree in
education, English and social science from Xavier Univer-
sity of Louisiana.
Longtime friend Bette Simpson-Opstad said Ollee passed
away Sept. 28 surrounded by family and friends.
“She was one of those people who you thank God she was
in your life for the time that she was,” said Simpson-Ops-
tad, of Federal Way. She added, “I always said to her, ‘You
always have this wonderful smile. And if a person doesn’t
have a smile you give them yours because you’re always
smiling.’ She was a very gracious person.”
