Serial Killer in Texas, Jeremy Rashaud Williams, Admits to Killing Four Individuals Within a Three-Week Period

In the fall of 2020, a Texan named Jeremy Rashaud Williams admitted guilt in a horrifying killing spree, taking the lives of four individuals, including the father of his ex-girlfriend. 

This gruesome incident unfolded over three weeks and concluded with Williams accepting a plea deal that ensures a lifetime behind bars, as reported by NBC DFW and Fox 4.

One of the victims, Robert Jaden Urrea, a 19-year-old pre-law student, was fatally shot on Halloween night while waiting for an Uber after a festive gathering. 

The surveillance footage captured the tragic event, and despite efforts at the hospital, Urrea succumbed to his injuries. His mother, Patricia Weaver, revealed that Williams targeted his victims as if they were not human beings.

Two weeks later, on November 14, Adam Gautreau met a tragic end, being fatally shot on an interstate service road, with another shooting occurring less than an hour later, claiming the life of Jerome Hamilton. The events unfolded in a ten-mile radius, with Hamilton found in the driver's seat suffering from a gunshot wound.

The spree reached its peak on November 18, when Williams killed his ex-girlfriend's father, 60-year-old Blair Carter, before setting the victim's house on fire in Celina, according to The Celina Record and WFAA. Williams was apprehended on the same day, thanks to witness descriptions of his vehicle.

During the sentencing, family members of the victims shared their emotional testimonies, with Monique Silas, Hamilton's niece, expressing that the day was part of the healing process. Weaver, Urrea's mother, faced the accused and shared memories of her son as a passionate musician who expressed himself through music.

Gautreau, a 36-year-old who had moved to Texas in 2018 to be closer to his son, was remembered as a kind and caring individual. Blair Carter, the father of Williams' ex-girlfriend, was eulogized for his never-ending positive attitude and infectious smile.

Weaver, while pleased with the verdict, expressed the difficulty of finding closure in the absence of remorse or motive. The attorneys representing Williams did not respond to inquiries on the matter.
