 Timothy King was an 11-year-old boy identified as the fourth victim in the [[Oakland County Child Killer]] case during the mid-1970s in Michigan. He resided in the Birmingham, Michigan area of Oakland County, Michigan alongside other victims including 12-year-old [[Mark Stebbins]] abducted on February 15, 1976, and found bound, sexually abused, and suffocated four days later in a parking lot; 12-year-old [[Jill Robinson]] abducted on December 22, 1976, and found shot in a highway ditch four days later; and 10-year-old [[Kristine Mihelich]] missing from January 2, 1977, and found suffocated roadside. 
 
 Investigations into these murders formed a special task force and linked the crimes to pedophile rings involving figures such as [[Christopher Busch]] and [[Gregory Greene]], with [[Gregory Greene]] arrested in January 1977 for assaulting boys and implicating [[Christopher Busch]] in related killings, while [[Christopher Busch]], son of a General Motors executive, possessed child pornography films depicting bound boys in wooded areas. During the OCCK cold case investigation, informant [[Richard Lawson]] claimed Timothy King was killed in a snuff film financed by [[Francis Shelden]], a detail verified through connections to an Amsterdam-based child pornography investigation in 1993 involving Shelden and British national King Tam Ang.[^1]
