PANAMA CITY — A thrice-convicted felon who federal agents found with a bomb recipe, satanic writings and bizarre shrines on his Jackson County property pleaded guilty in federal court Monday to possessing an illegal gun.

Edward Victor Williams was involved in February in an armed standoff with a game warden who saw a high-powered deer rifle in Williams’ truck before Williams allegedly threatened to kill the game warden and retreated back from the road onto his property. After he surrendered, investigators searched his property and found the rifle submerged in a pond, along with ammunition, marijuana plants and several altars or shrines.

Those shrines, which featured several baby dolls painted and mutilated to give the appearance they had been raped, burned and impaled, featured prominently in Assistant U.S. Attorney Gayle Littleton’s argument in support of an ultimately successful petition to hold Williams until trial at a hearing in April.

Williams was high on methamphetamine when he was arrested again in April. When federal agents searched his house, they found a letter addressed to the devil in which Williams apologized for acts of kindness and promised to do more evil.
