Collin County District Attorney Greg Willis announced that Damon White, 50, of Dallas, was sentenced to a maximum prison sentence of 20 years on a total of six charges, including Burglary of a Habitation, Stalking, Repeated Violation of a Protective Order, and Criminal Mischief. "This stalker used probation as an opportunity to make life hell on earth for his ex-wife. He inflicted years of harassment and threats and made her feel unsafe wherever she was, including in her own home. This time, the criminal justice system punished a repeat offender with the maximum punishment allowable under the law," said Willis after sentencing.​​

The victim filed for divorce from White in 2019 and obtained a protective order shortly thereafter. White began to stalk the victim by sending threatening texts, leaving voicemails, and rendering multiple cars driven by the victim and her family inoperable. He subsequently broke into her apartment using a screwdriver and took various items. He was arrested in 2019 at her apartment complex, found dressed in all black, wearing latex gloves, and in possession of a knife.

In January 2021, White pleaded guilty to five charges and punishment was assessed by the judge. He was placed on probation and ordered to have an electronic leg monitor, have no contact with the victim or her family, and to not return to the City of Allen, among other conditions.

In September 2021, the victim and her family began receiving new communications from White, in violation of his probation. The increasingly disturbing communications culminated in a recorded phone call in which White issued a graphic threat to kill the victim. White cut off his GPS monitoring device and was unable to be located. After tracking White's vehicle inside the city limits of Allen, Allen Police relocated the victim and her family for their safety.

The case was investigated by the Allen Police Department with assistance from the Texas Department of Public Safety and the Collin County District Attorney's Office. Multiple agencies assisted in arresting White on Oct. 30, 2021, for a subsequent Stalking charge. At the time of his arrest, White had completely changed his appearance by cutting his hair and dying his hair and beard. White also had a handgun in his possession.

White again pleaded guilty to the court on his five original charges in violation of his probation and the new stalking charge. During the sentencing hearing, prosecutors presented evidence from White's cell phone that included threatening and harassing text messages to the victim, the recorded phone call where White threatened to kill the victim, and Google searches for "spying on someone's phone," "reverse license plate search," and background check requests for the victim. The victim also testified during the sentencing hearing.

Judge Angela Tucker presided over the case and sentenced White to the maximum allowable punishment in each case.

Assistant Criminal District Attorneys Mollie Thompson, Abby Policastro, and Cresta Garland prosecuted the case, assisted by District Attorney Investigators Robin Laughon, Victim Assistance Coordinator Rebecca Royer, and Legal Secretary Melissa White
