Kim Williams, the wife of the former Kaufman County, Texas, justice of the peace, confessed to killing a district Attorney, his wife, and another DA, and implicated her husband in the shootings, according to a charging affidavit released today.

Williams, 46, was arrested and charged with capital murder. She was booked into the Kaufman County Jail just before 3 a.m. on Wednesday, Kaufman County Sheriff's Office spokesman Lt. Justin Williams said in a press conference today. She is being held on $10 million bail.

The charging documents name Williams, wife of ex Justice of the Peace Eric Williams, as the shooter in all three murders.

Williams' arrest follows an intensive investigation into the slayings of the county officials. District Attorney McLelland, 63, and his wife, 65, were found shot dead in their Forney, Texas, home March 30. Assistant District Attorney Mark Hasse was gunned down in January outside the county courthouse.

She joins her husband, Eric Williams, also 46, in jail. He was arrested and charged with making a "terroristic threat" early Saturday morning and is being held on a $3 million bond.
.....
The district attorney's office prosecuted and convicted Williams last year for two counts of felony theft, which resulted in his losing his justice of the peace position.

According to the charging document, both the slain DAs carried guns because they "believed Eric Williams was a threat to their personal safety." More at http://abcnews.go.com/US/kim-williams-wife-jailed-kaufman-county-offic
