Christophe Williams was 29 and from Houston when he died on February 17, 2007, in connection with a violent robbery at a truck stop. Court records describe Williams assisting an associate named Anderson, who held a knife to a victim identified as Rose while Williams attempted to take the victim’s cell phone. The two fled but returned and taunted Rose, claiming he had not called the police.

Prosecutors argued Williams knew of the knife and intended to support Anderson’s actions. The court focused on Williams’ proximity to the weapon and his cooperative conduct; testimony about the knife’s size and use led the court to treat it as a deadly weapon under Texas law, making Williams criminally liable as an accomplice despite his claim he had no intent to use a weapon.

Does anyone have information about the truck stop, the victim Rose, or witnesses to the February 17, 2007 incident?
