Pleas of innocence
expected in slave case
United Press International
KERRVILLE — Three mem
bers of a Kerr County ranch
family will plead innocent to
murder charges filed in the
death of an Alabama drifter,
their attorney said Tuesday.
“I can tell you they will enter
pleas of not guilty,” said de
fense attorney Richard Mosty.
Mosty and former Kerrville
Mayor Tom Pollard are rep
resenting ranch owner Walter
Wesley Ellebracht Sr., 53, his
son, Walter Wesley Jr., 31, and
daughter-in-law, Joyce, 29.
Hitchhikers rescued April 6
claimed they were lured to the
Ellebracht ranch with promises
of a hot meal, then enslaved,
tortured and chained in a barn
at night to prevent their escape.
The Ellebrachts, charged
with murder and aggravated
kidnapping, are being held in
the Kerr County Jail on
$200,000 bonds.
No arraignment hearing has
been set for the Ellebrachts or
three ranch hands also charged
with murder in the March 13
death of Anthony Bates, a
drifter from Huntsville, Ala. A
pretrial hearing has been sched
uled for May 4.
Sworn depositions said Bates
wa$ tortured to death with a
cattle prod and his body was
cremated.
Tests conducted by the De
partment of Public Safety deter
mined that charred bone frag
ments found at the ranch were
of human origin.
State Judge V. Murray Jor
dan appointed attorneys Mon
day for two other defendants in
the case.
Defense attorney Steve
Abies, a former prosecutor un
der Kerr County District Attor
ney Ron Sutton, was appointed
to represent Darryl Hunsaker,
21, formerly of Wichita Falls.
Bob Denson was appointed for
Mark Hamilton, 22, of Los An
geles.
Jordan gave a third de
fendant, Carlton Cardwell, 19,
of Taos, N.M., until May 4 to
acquire his own attorney.
Abies said he plans to file a
motion to obtain all statements
that Hunsaker and others made
to law enforcement officers
about the case, which he con
ceded was bizarre.
“It’s going to be an interest
ing case,” Abies said. “Some
headlines have used the word
‘bizarre.’ Maybe that’s an accu
rate term.
Abies said he would be sur
prised if Mosty doesn’t file a
motion for a change of venue.
“It takes forever to pick a
jury when everybody has read
about it in the newspaper,” he
said. “I think (the trial) could
eventually be moved.”
Moving Yourself?
Before you decide to move yourself,
check out North American Van Lines'
WE-DR/VE program. The concept is
simple: you pack, you load, and a
professional North American Van
Lines' driver moves your belongings to
your new home in a custom-designed
"air ride'' van.
You can still save money by doing part
of the work yourself, and leaving
the hard part to us. It's the
worry-free alternative to a
rent-a-truck move.

“When I Went Off to College
My Dad Sure Got Smart.”
He bought a Cripple Creek Condominium. Now he’s
enjoying the tax advantages of ownership-he’s
building equity and he’ll have prime rental property
after I’ve graduated. That’s important to my dad.
But, I’m interested in the amenities Cripple Creek
ofters-microwave ovens, automatic icemakers, large
walk-in closets, tennis courts, a swimming pool, and
a hot tub. And Cripple Creek is located in the heart of
student living, close to restaurants, shopping, clubs,
banking facilities, and it’s right on the shuttle bus
route. Living at Cripple Creek says that I have style
and my dad has a solid investment. My college
education will reap benefits for both of us.
Cripple Creek Condominums start at $39,950.
