Appeals court orders
Warped
By Scott McCulli
extradition of suspect
United Press International
AUSTIN — The Texas Court
of Criminal Appeals has
ordered the accused killer of
Colorado salesman Harold Judy
Extradited to New Mexico to.
face murder charges.
; A spokesman for the appeals
court in Austin said Thursday
the court-appointed attorney
for James Floyd Williams has 15
days from Jan. 27 to ask for a
rehearing on the extradition
order.
Williams, 45, was arrested last
Mairch 5 in Arlington and
charged with the September
1980 murder of the Littleton,
Colo., man. Judy was the region
al sales manager for the Berkley-
Small Co., a newspaper circula
tion supply firm owned by the
E.W. Scripps Co.
Judy, 53, who had been re
ported missing while on a busi
ness trip to southern Colorado
and northern New Mexico, was
found dead in a remote moun
tain area near Datil, N.M. He
had been shot in the chest with a
.22-caliber handgun.
Williams, who has a record of
19 felony convictions and has
served 15 years in federal and
state penitentiaries, was charged
with the death after several wit
nesses identified him as the man
they believe they saw driving
Judy’s missing motor home and
trying to use Judy’s credit cards.

However, another possible
suspect in the Judy’s killing sur
faced last October when Califor
nia officers engaged in a shoot
out with Edward Eugene Crad
dock, a suspect in the killings of
a Texas couple who died three
weeks before Judy’s death.

from any other service station
owner pumping gas, but he is a
millionaire twice over — at least
on paper.
When Getty Oil Co. promised
to build Essex a new gas station,
he took the offer seriously.
When the promise fell through,
he took Getty to court.
A federal court jury two
weeks ago awarded Essex $2.17
million of the $8 million he had
asked for in his suit. The deci
sion is on appeal, so it may be
years before any money is real
ized from the suit.
In the meantime, things re
main about the same for Essex,
57, who has been in the service
station business for 25 years. He
still comes to work about 7:30
a.m. and leaves about noon ev
ery day, and his wife, Leona,
comes in once a week to do the
books.
There are no signs directing
customers to the white, concrete
block service station. Essex said
the publicity hasn’t brought any
more customers to his six-pump,
six-bay service station. Like be
fore, Essex has one service man,
one mechanic and one gas atten
dant.
“Nothing’s changed,” Essex
said. “We haven’t got anything
yet and don’t know when or
what I’ll get. We don’t want to
make plans for something we
don’t have.”
Gene Graham, Essex’s lawyer,
said it could be as long as two
years before the case is closed.
Whether or not he will stay in
the business if he gets his money
is hard to say, Essex said.
Essex’s troubles with Getty Oil
