Exclusive video obtained by ABC13 through a public records request to the city of Houston shows the couple on Oct. 26 at the Robinson-Westchase neighborhood Library on Wilcrest. They walk in at 4:42 p.m. and go straight to front the desk, where they engage with a library employee. Their demeanor appears casual, as Williams cracks a smile.

This library visit was just two days after Williams' 15-year-old son called 911 for help and told Harris County Sheriff's Office deputies that he and his two brothers had been living alone in a westside apartment as the body of another brother rotted away in a bedroom.
During the 23-minute library visit, Williams' sons were in CPS custody.

Williams' bond was raised last week to more than $1.5 million dollars. Coulter's bond is at $1 million dollars. Investigators believe Coulter beat the boy to death in front of his brothers last November.
On the day the couple was in the library, sources say they were searching for news articles about the horrific case. The video shows Williams walking out with a piece of paper. They walk to the car where deputies speed in, and arrest them without incident.
