Suspect Arrested for Capital Murder

Denton Police Department Media Release

DENTON, TX, April 4, 2023 — Denton PD detectives have arrested 29-year-old Silvester Williams for Capital Murder in relation to last month’s double homicide.

 At approximately 10 p.m. Thursday, March 23, officers were dispatched to a shooting call at an apartment complex in the 1300 block of Dallas Drive. Upon arrival, officers located two deceased gunshot victims, an adult male and an adult female, in a vehicle. These victims have since been identified by the Tarrant County Medical Examiner’s Office as 29-year-old Breanna Dunn, and 43-year-old Ronald Calvert Jr. 

During the investigation, numerous pieces of evidence linked Williams to the shooting, and connected him to the male victim. This evidence showed they knew one another, confirming this crime was not a random act of violence. 

On Monday, April 3, detectives arrested Williams in Lewisville for Capital Murder, for causing the death of two people during the same criminal act. 

We would like to extend a thank you to the Joint East Texas Fugitive Task Force, consisting of Denton PD, the Denton County Sheriff’s Office, and Carrollton PD, for their assistance in taking this suspect into custody. 

If anyone believes they have additional information about this double homicide, or about this suspect’s involvement in this crime, we request you please call Detective Bearden at 940-349- 7986. You can always call Denton County Crime Stoppers to anonymously report a tip: 1-800- 388-TIPS (8477).
