Texas judge accused of vandalism related to spray painting over segregation-era sign

ELLIS COUNTY, Texas (KXAN) — One month after a historical sign hanging in the Ellis County Courthouse in Waxahachie, Texas, was defaced, a mystery YouTube video surfaced — allegedly showing the county judge instructing someone else to do it. 

Ellis County Judge Todd Little is accused of vandalism in connection with the spray-painting over of the sign, which reads “Negroes,” and hangs where a water fountain intended only for Black residents used to be, the Dallas Morning News reports.
