Let’s Give William Marino the Love He Deserves 💙 - WHAT MURDAAAAAA ???

William Marino is the unofficial king of a viral punchline—a true legend whose words have echoed across social media for decades. You’ve heard the line. You’ve definitely laughed at the memes. Maybe you’ve even used his voice as your ringtone.

Back in 1992, during a now-iconic Channel 7 News interview about John Gotti’s conviction, William delivered a phrase that would go on to live forever:
“What murder???”

Since then, his voice has been sampled, mimicked, and celebrated by everyone from cops to content creators. Even music legends like 50 Cent have dropped his line into their work.

But here’s the part most people don’t know:
William has never made a dime from his viral fame. Not one cent.

That’s where we come in.

Thirty years after that unforgettable moment, Retired Detective Michael J. Furia—the world’s most famous facial recognition detective from Halcyon Eye (a.k.a. @Vendetta_Blue_ on YouTube/Instagram)—found William. And now, it's time to give back.

William still works hard every day, earning an honest living. He’s humble, grounded, and never asked for the spotlight—but he earned it.

Let’s show him the appreciation he deserves.
Let’s help the internet finally pay it forward.
