#277 - The Cuckoo (William Blaise, Barnes, London)

Sunday the 1st of December 2019 was the last time 53-year-old William Algar, a talented jazz trumpeter was seen alive. One month later, parts of his dismembered body were found in his flat at 7 Nowell Road in Barnes, having been the victim of cuckooing by a drugs gang. But who had murdered him? This is a story about a county lines gang who murdered an innocent man in the name of greed.


  • Date: Sunday 1st December 2019 (time of murder impossible to tell)
  • Location: Ground Floor Flat, 7 Nowell Road, Barnes, SW13
  • Victims: 1 (William Hugh Blaise Algar)
  • Culprits: 1 (Emeka Kabiru Dawuda-Wodu, Zimele Dube, Janayo Lucima, Marc Harding)
  • Method of death: stabbing, decapitation and dismemberment.

Note: Wodu, Emmons & Dube were found guilty of the later murder of Ebrima Cham. In the murder of William Algar, all were convicted of perverting the course of justice, but unable to prove who had killed William, Wodu, Emmons & Dube were found ‘not guilty’ of his murder or his manslaughter.
