Police identify man who sent Sumlin racist letter

Houston Police have publicly identified the man who allegedly sent a racist letter to then-Texas A&M coach Kevin Sumlin in 2017, adding that the note was part of a pattern of harassment to high-profile figures in the Houston area.

Robin Chiswell, 60, allegedly called Sumlin the N-word and told him to "Please get lost! Or else." in a letter sent following a season-opening loss to UCLA in September 2017.

Chiswell was arrested in November and charged with felony stalking in a separate case where he had allegedly sent a Houston philanthropist threatening letters for more than 30 years.
