Waiting now four months
It has been nearly four months since the murder of Anthony De’Milo Williams, Jr. in Bedias, with no words of encouragement, or updates on the investigation. The GCSO shared that they were waiting for forensic reports from a Dallas lab. Is murder so low on the list of priorities for Texas law enforcement that this issue cannot be addressed in a timely manner?
Please offer your support and comfort to your friends and neighbors, and to the wider Bedias community in these challenging times. And please look for ways we can work together in a safer, more responsible manner so these next few months do not look so much like the preceding months and that next year will be our bright and shinning future we have come to hope for and expect.
