Ex-convict blamed
for bus shooting
United Press International
DALLAS — A 37-year-old ex
convict, described as a neighbor
hood eccentric who lived in a
primitive camp proclaimed as
the “Free in Christ Mission,” is
being held in a bizarre shooting
attack that left one city bus pas
senger dead and three others
wounded.
Police prepared today to file
murder and attempted murder
charges against W.K. Rudd Jr.
in the Wednesday afternoon
shooting spree aboard a Dallas
Transit System bus in the south
Dallas neighborhood of Oak
Cliff.
When asked if a motive had
been determined in the attack,
investigator Ricky Smith said:
“If you mean a rational motive,
no.”
He declined to reveal what
Rudd had told him about the
attack, saying only that Rudd be
lieved he was affiliated with a
church.
“He boarded the bus, walked
to the back of the bus and pulled
the shotgun out of the golf bag,”
Smith said.
Killed was Willis Thomas, 37,
who suffered a shotgun wound
to the back and died at a local
hospital.
Hospitalized in critical condi
tion with chest wounds were two
men identified as Hosely
Minafee, 17, and Joseph Wren,
38. Bus driver Herbert Thomp
son, 41, was in good condition
with gunshot wounds to the leg.
Witnesses said the man fled
the bus and ran to a nearby ser
vice station, where police or
dered him to drop his gun. 1
complied.
Police late Wednesday fou:
his home in a wooded areaneij
the shooting site. They saidi
was a primitive camp coc-l
structed of plastic and sap
Nearby they found a crudelyfej
tered sign that proclaimed tit]
“T he Free in Christ Missiosl
and a podium on which
placed a Gideon Bible.
Police spokesman Ed Spencsj
said records showed Ruddkl
been sentenced to two yearsi
prison in 1962 for theft o\ej
f 50. Police records also shovel
he had been arrested in 1970,i
which time he listed his occupJ
lion as carpenter, on a charged
f ailure to stop and render aid]
Spencer said records did noti:-l
dicate if he had been convicted
of that charge.

United Press International
AUSTIN — The Texas Court
of Criminal Appeals has re
versed a murder conviction and
ordered a new trial for a Dallas
woman convicted of killing a
man by running him down with
her car.
Mildred Kearney was con
victed of the 1977 slaying of
Norman Marshal. However, the
appeals court ruled that during
her trial, the Dallas County pro
secutor assigned to the case gave
improper arguments to the jury.
The court made specific ob
jections to the prosecutor’s sug-

gestion that Kearney was
attempting perpetrate a fraud
on the jury similar to insurance
fraud.
The prosecutor also re
minded the jurors that Travis
Howard, a witness in the case,
had been convicted of burglary
and sentenced to 16 years in
prison, but only served six years
because of parole.
“The argument concerning
insurance fraud is not a reason
able deduction from the evi
dence,” the court ruled Wednes
day, “and the comment on Ho
ward’s testimony is clearly an in
vitation to consider parole law
during punishment delibera
tions. These arguments consti
tute reversible error.”
The justices also upheld the
capitol murder conviction and
death sentence given to a Hous
ton man convicted of beating a
man to death, then participating
in the rape of his girlfriend.
The victims, a young Baytown
couple visiting Houston, were
abducted from the Montrose
area after leaving a nightclub
