The suspect was identified through fingerprints as escaped convict Billy Dee Wilson, 27, Caddo Parish Sheriff Don Hath away said. He was found shot to death in the living room of Kay Clayton, who surprised him after hearing noises in her house Wednesday. Clayton told neighbors the in truder made growling sounds and came toward her. She closed her eyes and squeezed the trig- Make reservations now and you won’t have to wait in line on graduation day.

Clayton fled with her two children to a neighbor’s house after firing the shot. Authorities in Bonham Tues day captured another convict who escaped with Wilson from the Washington Parish Jail in Bogalusa, La., April 18. Wilson and Roy James Hill, 35, were wanted by federal au thorities for questioning in the kidnapping of the Barden girl, who was last seen Saturday climbing into a truck outside her Gallatin home. Hill, who told authorities he knows nothing about the dis appearance nor the whereab outs of the youngster, claimed he spent the entire afternoon at a hotel near Hamilton, Mo., 13 miles away. Hill told interrogaters his first knowledge of the crime was from relatives he called late Monday after the two had fled Missouri, gone to Nebraska and headed south through Kansas and Oklahoma into Texas. Daviess County, Mo., Sheriff K.R. Calvin said Hill might not have any knowledge of the abduction — even if Wilson was the kidnapper. “You got two different kind of people,” Calvin said of Hill and Wilson. “You got a rapist, and you got a two-bit burglar.” Wilson was awaiting transfer to the Louisiana State Penitenti ary for the rape of an 8-year-old girl and Hill was awaiting sen tencing on several counts of burglary and a previous jail- break when they escaped. Calvin said it was the testi mony of the 8-year-old victim that convicted Wilson in Louisiana and he feared Wil son’s twisted logic might have led him to kill the Barden girl.
