News Summary

Bobby Williams Jr., a 49-year-old man from Bryan, has been sentenced to eight years for evading police arrest following a disturbance incident in September 2022. The jury acknowledged his history of noncompliance and threats against law enforcement. This case marks yet another chapter in Williams’ troubled legal history, as he awaits additional trials for multiple charges. The community remains attentive as local law enforcement works to ensure safety in Bryan.

Bryan Man Sentenced to Eight Years After Disturbance Incident

In the bustling city of Bryan, a local man, Bobby Williams Jr., aged 49, has been handed a significant eight-year sentence after facing a jury and being convicted for evading police arrest. This decision was finalized on February 13, 2025, by trial judge Kyle Hawthorne.

Incident Overview

The troubling events leading up to this conviction date back to September 2022, when the Bryan Police Department was called to respond to a disturbance involving Williams. According to reports, when officers arrived at the scene near Dunbar Drive and Manning, they found Williams fitting the description of the individual causing the ruckus, but he took off running. Once the officers caught up with him, Williams was detained and handcuffed.

During his time in custody, Williams reportedly unleashed a tirade of threats, targeting one officer in particular with comments that ranged from physical violence to more personal attacks against the officer and his family. This threat-filled episode lasted about 90 minutes—an ordeal that certainly left a mark on the responding officers.

Legal Proceedings

Despite being convicted on multiple counts of evading arrest due to his history of noncompliance with police orders, the jury found Williams not guilty of trying to grab a weapon from an officer during the September incident. His criminal record didn’t help his case, as the jury was presented evidence of past violent behavior; Williams had a previous conviction for Assault on a Public Servant for an incident in which he bit an officer.

After the verdict, Assistant District Attorneys Abigail Goodman and Kara Comte stressed the seriousness of Williams’ history, characterized by a pattern of violence and threats against law enforcement. Sadly, this is not the end of the road for Williams, as he remains in limbo awaiting three additional trials in Brazos County.

Upcoming Trials and Other Legal Troubles

Williams’ plate is full, with upcoming trials linked to several arrests: the first for felony possession of a controlled substance in May 2023; the second for misdemeanor resisting arrest in March 2023; and yet another for misdemeanor resisting arrest and criminal trespassing from September 2022.

Additional Local News

In other news around the Bryan and College Station area, a college district survey regarding cell phone policies has gained significant attention, collecting a whopping 4,400 responses ahead of the Christmas break. While school board members, led by Superintendent Tim Harkrider, discussed the findings during a meeting in January, no decision has been reached yet on whether to ban cell phone use in schools entirely.

Police Chases and Arrests

In a separate incident on February 16, a driver, 31-year-old Brad Ellwood, found himself in serious trouble after police chased him for running a stop sign and speeding over 100 mph. To make matters worse, officers discovered shard remnants of methamphetamine during his arrest. Ellwood is now sitting in jail with bonds totaling $200,000.

Valentine’s Day also brought its share of drama, when Deijah Ester, 25, and Diallo Ester, 51, were arrested for theft involving over $2,300 in stolen merchandise from a Marshall’s store. The couple has a history of criminal charges, putting their future in jeopardy as felony warrants loom over them.

City Council Highlights

The College Station city council addressed new state laws aimed at helping local businesses during their recent meetings. Meanwhile, Brazos County District Clerk Gabriel Garcia was arrested on February 15 for assault during a domestic dispute, alongside his ex-girlfriend. Both remain free on $5,000 bonds as they face charges of assault causing bodily injury.

The community waits with bated breath as these cases unfold and hope that prevention and intervention programs can pave the way for a safer environment in Bryan and surrounding areas.
