Logan man accepts plea deal in Texas murder case

Adam Curtis Williams, 35, of Cache Valley has reportedly accepted a plea deal in a Texas murder case.

According to a report from the Corpus Christi Caller Times on Wednesday, Williams is anticipated to plead guilty to charges after reaching a deal with Kleberg County prosecutors, taking the death penalty off the table and requiring life in prison without parole.

 

Williams is expected to go before the court on Nov. 10.

 

Prosecutors alleged Williams was involved in the murder of a New Hampshire couple who were buried in a shallow grave on Padre Island on the southern coast of Texas. Williams and co-defendant Amanda Noverr, 34, were taken into custody in Mexico and later extradited back to the United States. Williams and Noverr were both charged with first-degree capital murder by a Kleberg County grand jury. Read the rest of the story on HJnews.com.
