Full title - "Mystery Texas killings 'solved': Disgraced court official to be charged with murders of Texas district attorney, his wife and assistant DA after they convicted him of theft"

A former justice of the peace is reportedly set to be charged with three murders, including a former Texas district attorney and assistant DA, after he was arrested on Saturday.

Eric Williams, 46, has been arrested by authorities investigating the murders of District Attorney Mike McLelland and his wife, Cynthia, last month - and the fatal shooting of ADA Mark Hasse in late January.

Williams was booked into Kaufman County Jail early Saturday morning for making terroristic threats and 'insufficient bond.' He is being held on a $3million bond.

Sources tell CBS11 that he will be charged with capital murder in the deaths of Mr and Mrs McLelland and the assistant attorney.

Williams had previously been successfully prosecuted by the murdered officials.

Police reportedly zeroed in on Williams after several emails making threats to other county officials were linked to him.

So we can expect this to be on every newscast on Monday, right? Brian Williams will be saying, "Hey, it turns out these murders had nothing to do with the white Brotherhood after all!" Right? Right?

Yeah, right.

This otherwise former official is the very reason private ownership of firearms is REQUIRED.

How many did he kill under cover of his office?

This needs to be throughly investaged and all the folks who tried to cover for him over the years, and the lawyers who bribed him, the hookers who gave him favors for light treatment and so forth should all be dragged through the coals (metaphorically) to find out if he was a loner or part of a network of government killers and thugs.

Oops. Not the Aryan Brotherhood or the Cartels. Not a story anymore.

To the ‘fear mongers’ and idiots in the Government and Media, finding out a ‘White (emphasize WHITE) Supremacist gang OR Klan OR anything else they can think of’ was not directly ‘involved’, has to be right up there with finding out George Zimmerman wasn’t a WHITE file clerk or CEO in the terms of OH CRAP, we ‘blew’ it.

Now they will put all their efforts to the Abortion Butcher and dig into his files and find that he gave 25 bucks to a (supposed) “R” candidate for some miniscule office and the icing on the cake will be if he EVER said hello or goodbye to a known “TEA Party member” which of course will make him a Card Carrying Conservative and we better hope he never donated a dime to NRA, that would make him a full fledged NRA Lifetime Member.

Wasnn’t there some other guy who quit his job as a prosecutor because he thought the cartel / skinhead mob might come after him next?

A neighbor told the Dallas Morning News that he knew Williams to be a 'nice guy' who was known in the neighborhood for riding around town in his Segway.

"He was a quiet man..."

“Williams to be a ‘nice guy’ who was known in the neighborhood for riding around town in his Segway.”

He rode a Segway Human Individual Transport? LOL.

Neither this article or another one I checked gave the accused killer's party affiliation.

That in itself made me suspect Democrat, but then this article reports that he "was known in the neighborhood for riding around town in his Segway."

Who but a Democrat would do that - especially in Texas?

I guess the X Federal Prosecutor that resigned in fear for his life will be flipping burgers at McDonalds?

Not likely, he’ll be promoted by Eric Holder to head the Civil Rights Division.

Smells funny. The media/government ginned up the false Aryan Brotherhood story. Why?

Dollars to donuts they knew a Segway-driving ex-judge was the murderer, but went ahead with the false narrative anyway.
