Weeks after claiming their home was vandalized with racist graffiti and their vehicles set ablaze in front of their home, Texas authorities say David Williams has admitted to vandalizing his own Fort Worth-area home.
On December 12, Williams, of Denton, TX, said he and his wife, Jenny, awoke to find their truck and motorcycle set on fire, with the words “****** Lover” painted across the family’s garage. Williams, his wife, and their four children are all white.

Denton Fire Department spokesperson David Hedges told the Register-Chronicle that Williams “will be charged at a minimum with arson” after he’s released from a mental health facility. He added that authorities are also exploring “possible other charges.”
According to the Houston Chronicle, Williams originally wrote about her husband’s confession in a since-deleted blog post published before Christmas weekend. She later posted an update on her Facebook page, where she described her family as being in a “state of shock and sadness.”

On the campaign website, Ashlee Lynch—identified by the Houston Chronicle as David Williams’ sister—posted a short message after news of her sibling’s confession was made public:
