A 12-year-old northwest Atlanta girl stabbed her stepfather early Friday as he fought with her mother, police said. He later died.
The girl, who is the mother of a 5-month-old, got involved in the argument after her stepfather, Randal Williams, accidentally hit the baby, Williams' mother said.
Police said Williams, 28, was stabbed in the shoulder and the arm and ran from the home, on Mayson Turner Road between Marie and Flowers streets in northwest Atlanta. Police would not say what kind of knife was used.
No charges have been filed in the death, and police and the Fulton County District Attorney's Office continue to investigate.
Although Williams and Trinderlyn Snow Williams, 30, had been married only since Aug. 10, they had lived together about three years and had an explosive relationship, according to family members. Trinderlyn and her daughter moved into the house shortly before the wedding.
Williams, who used the stage name "2000," was an aspiring rapper scrapping for a break in the music business. The stabbing occurred shortly after he returned home from a gig at which he and his wife had argued.
Williams' mother, Chris Williams, said she got a call from her son's wife about 4 a.m. "Trin called me to say her girl stabbed my son. They were fighting and he accidentally hit the baby and the [12-year-old] stabbed him."
Police responded to the home about 3:30 a.m. after getting a hang-up 911 call but Williams was not there. About a half-hour later, Williams returned home but had lost too much blood for paramedics to save him.
"I'm sure he panicked" when he left the home, said his mother. "And then he realized that this was serious and he went back because it was his house."
Friends and Williams' family members said he and his wife started arguing at the Club Ritz on Old National Highway, where his group, Pimpalinium, was performing.
Witnesses at the club said Williams and her husband got into an argument and that she left about an hour before her husband.
It wasn't their first fight, family members said.
"This was a volatile relationship," said Williams' mother. She claimed her son was stabbed in the hand during a fight with his wife last year.
She said there was no police report of the stabbing because her son was wanted on a warrant, so he used Roderick, his brother's name, when he went to Grady Memorial Hospital.
Randal Williams was in violation of probation for a cocaine possession conviction in March of last year in Fulton County. He had failed to report to his parole officer, and a warrant was issued for his arrest in August 2001. He also used his brother's name when he was arrested during a domestic disturbance in September 2001, Williams' mother said. An Atlanta police report says officers responded to a domestic disturbance call and found Trinderlyn -- then his girlfriend -- with a bruised eye and bloody nose. Police charged Williams with battery.
Trinderlyn Williams has a criminal record of two drug and two fraud convictions and an arrest for obstruction of a law enforcement officer. There is an outstanding warrant for her arrest for probation violations.
Williams' mother said her son had been interested in singing since he was a boy and worked full time on his music career. His group released one CD and had another coming out next month.
"His main focus was looking for a break," she said, adding that he was getting older in a young man's business. "But he thought it would come."

Trinderlyn Snow Williams, 30
Sad, sad story. I would say more, but I would probably be banned from Free Republic if I said what I want to say.
I was recently told by a parent that there is a pregnant fourth-grader in another school in our town. My fourth-grade son has two African American girls in his class and they both have clearly started puberty. We have not even told him about sex yet, he is only 9!!! Girls are becoming women at much earlier ages nowadays. Nobody knows why. But their parents can still keep them little girls if they want to. Not enough parents want to, they would just as soon have the kids grow up and move out at 12 so they can get back to their partying lifestyle.
Oh, it's just too easy.
Ahh,yes. All hail the "Pimp"! A proper role model if there ever was one! I wonder if he had a role as a pimp to his 12 year old stepdaughter,and that's why she was pregnant as a 11 year old?
"This was a volatile relationship," said Williams' mother.
OK,everybody who believes this woman REALLY used the word "volatile" correctly in sentence,raise your hands.
She said there was no police report of the stabbing because her son was wanted on a warrant, so he used Roderick, his brother's name, when he went to Grady Memorial Hospital.
Of course. Doesn't everybody do this? I guess his brother got stuck with the "un-romantic role" of "non-criminal family member". Kinda like a "desiginated drinker",he is a "desiginated ID" for dealing with the po-lice.
Anybody want to bet that how this family really "earned" their living was through gooberment aid and drug dealing? That's right. Our tax money is spent to PAY people like this so they have plenty of time to lay around their homes and breed.
You're right. They are closer to being two-legged rats than actual thinking people. The word "consequences" ain't even a theory to them. It's all about what they want this very instant,and nothing else matters.
You're right. He already had a CD out,and was going to school at night to improve himself. He had already learned his "A's" and his "B's",and was working hard on understanding his "C"s". Course,he already knew his "B's" when he got there,even if he misspelled it. An example would be "Tyrone,he be's at de clinic."
Nobody knows,and nobody seems to care. The important thing is she brought money and food stamps in to the fambly.
