DETROIT AP. Confessed killer Leslie Allen Williams says he is sorry for killing four teenage girls and wants to plead guilty to spare families more grief. Experts call it manipulation, noting killers seek attention after capture and use interviews to maintain celebrity status. Williams, 38, led investigators to victims after a May 24 arrest and admits multiple assaults since parole in 1990.

Williams awaits upcoming preliminary hearings on four slayings.
