Cathy Williams, 64, of Stafford, Texas, was fatally shot in her home on August 24, 2021. The shooting happened in the early hours of the morning; her son, 33-year-old Joshua Cordell Williams, is reported to have shot her. Cathy's husband, Joseph Williams, was also wounded and taken to hospital in critical condition.

Joshua Williams was arrested at the scene and reportedly confessed to his role in the shooting. He was charged with murder and aggravated assault of a family member. Investigators noted Joshua had a history of substance abuse and that ongoing tensions at the home reportedly involved his parents’ participation in an organized religion, which he said influenced their behavior.

Cathy is remembered by family for unconditional love, generosity, and kindness. Does anyone who knew the Williams family have information about tensions at the home or the events that led up to the shooting?
