The wife of a jailed former Texas court official has reportedly confessed to helping her husband kill two prosecutors. Eric Williams, a former justice of the peace in Kaufman County, was detained Saturday for last month’s killings of District Attorney Mike McLelland and his wife, Cynthia McLelland, as well as of Assistant Prosecutor Mark Hasse two months before. On Wednesday, police said Williams’ wife, Kim Lene Williams, had told them her husband committed the murders and that she provided assistance. She’s been charged with capital murder. Hasse and McLelland successfully prosecuted Eric Williams last year after he was caught stealing computer equipment. He remains behind bars, but has not been formally charged.
