HOUSTON — In a bizarre and disturbing case, Houston police say they’ve arrested a stalker who targeted high-profile Houston socialites and philanthropists, along with former Texas A&M football coach Kevin Sumlin.
The stalker researched his victims thoroughly and even attended their family funerals and weddings, according to investigators.
Robin Chiswell, 61, is charged with felony stalking in a case involving Carolyn Farb, a fixture on the Houston charity scene for decades.
