Psychologist says minister incapable of killing wife
Secret lover: Railey innocent
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN ANTONIO — A ps)'chologist told a
spellbound courtroom Wednesday she carried on a
secret love affair with a former Dallas minister but
insisted that he was incapable of trying to kill his
wife.
With occasional defiance, the flashy blonde
witness recounted details of her long-running
romance with Walker Railey before and after the
near-strangulation of his wife six years ago.
But on cross-examination, when asked if Railey
was capable of such violence, Lucy Papillon
declared:
"l know he's not."
And in a bizarre conclusion, prosecutor Howard
Wilson failed dramatically to shake her testimony,
asking her if "even the best psychologists" make
mistakes.
"Sometimes, Howard,"
she said, "but i believe m "My demon has finally gotten the

"That's what I
believe," she said, her
dark eyes blazing. "I know
The state brought a parade of witnesses
Wednesday to show the jury that Railey was in and
out of SMU libraries that night but no one saw him
there during a critical time gap.
The attack on Mrs. Railey occurred between 9:30
p.m. and midnight.
Papillon told the jury she spoke with Railey by
phone several times that night and that sometime
after 7:30 p.m. he visited at her home for 45 minutes.
"We just talked . . .," she said.
About 11 p.m., she said, Railey called from a
library at SMU and asked if he could come over.
"I told him I was really tired and it was late. I said
no."
On cross-examination, lead defense attorney
Doug Mulder sought to defuse the suicide issue
through his questioning of Papillon, a practicing
psychologist now living in California.
"Did he ever make a statement to you that if the
relationship became public and church members
found out about it, he'd kill
himself?" Mulder asked.
"He said that... I didn't
interpret it that he would
actually kill himself,"
Papillon replied.
She also insisted that
Railey respected his wife
-Walker Railey and that he cared deeply for
her and his two young

Papillon's long-awaited testimony was

the
emotional highlight of the 10-day-old trial but jurors
also heard for the first time Wednesday the taped
telephone calls that could help send Railey to prison
for up to 20 years.
Peggy Railey survived the April 21, 1987, attack
but remains clinically brain dead in a Tyler nursing
home.
In the most volatile day of the trial, now in its
second week, State District Judge Pat McDowell
formally overruled vigorous defense efforts to block
testimony about Railey's suicide attempt 10 days
after the attack.
The defense argued that such testimony was
irrelevant and prejudicial.
"My demon has finally gotten the upper hand,"
Railey wrote in a suicide note found in his hospital
suite the next morning. "I am the baddest of the bad
... I affrthe lowest of the low."
The state maintains Railey's infatuation with
Papillon prompted the attack on his wife and that he
orchestrated a "clumsy attempt" to cover his actions
with a phony alibi.
Railey, 45, insists he was researching a book that
night at Southern Methodist University.

"No, I do not," she replied.
"Did you ever make demands on him or give him
any ultimatums or deadlines as regards your
relationship?"
"No, none."
"Did he ever say if you don't divorce your wife or
get rid of your wife. I'll not see you anymore?"
"No."
Under direct questioning by Wilson, Papillon, a
Methodist bishop's daughter, said she met Railey in
the mid-80s on a church-related television show.
She also attended Railey's First United Methodist
Church.
Papillon, her voice soft but steady, told the jury
her relationship with Railey turned sexual in June
1986, some 10 months before the attack on Mrs.
Railey.
"From June of 1986 until April 1987, did you have
sexual relations on a regular basis?" Wilson asked.
"Fairly regularly."
She said she frequently accompanied Railey on
church trips and that they had sexual liaisons in
Kansas, California, Georgia, Texas, Arkansas and
elsewhere, including Europe.

HUNTSVILLE (AP) -
Convicted cop killer Leonel

offended and angered that his
next execution date has been
set for May 5, Clnco de Mayo,
or Mexican Independence Day.
"It's an insult," Herrera/in
his first interview since he

Bill requires kids
be immunized
AUSTIN (AP) - The state
House tentatively approved a
bill Wednesday that would
help ensure all Texas children
are immunized against disease.
: > The measure, sponsored by
Rep. Nancy McDonald, D-El
Paso, would require hospitals
and physicians to immunize a
child under age 18 who has not
been vaccinated for diseases
such as measles and polio.
"I think we're going to see a
serious reduction in the
number of childhood diseases,"
said Gov. Ann Richards, who
has made the bill one of her top
priorities. "J think it's going to
have a big impact in the low-
income community.
"If we're ever going to do
anything about health, we've
got to get on the preventative
side of it and that's what this
The measure, which will
cost slightly more than $50
million over the next two-year
budget period, has already
passed the Senate. If the House
approves the bill on a final
vote, it will return to the Senate
for consideration of several
House amendments.
The bill would exempt
children from immunizations if
they have a religious conflict.
The bill also would relieve
doctors and hospitals from
liability if the parents refuse to
have tneir children immunized.
Tthe doctor would not be
held liable if the records are not
inspected.
American Airlines chairman
announces plans for layoffs
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DALLAS— American Airlines will lay off 500 pilots, 400 V ,
maintenance workers and an unknown number of flight attendants and
other employees as part of its plan to pull out of unprofitable markets,
officials of the carrier said Wednesday.
Robert L. Crandall, chairman of the company, told airline employee
Wednesday in Chicago that the reductions would take place by the fall,
according to The Dallas Morning News' Thursday editions.
The Morning News said the layoffs are likely to exceed 2,000
employees, or about 2 percent of the airline's total of 97,535 employees
on Jan. 31.
"There will be layoffs," American spokesman A1 Becker told The
Associated Press. "But there's no timetable yet."
The airline announced two weeks ago its plans to ground 28 wide-
body jets, reducing the airline's seat capacity by 6 percent.
The airline said then that parking those airlines would eliminate 470
pilot jobs, 1,300 flight attendant jobs and many other positions. The
company added that it hoped to avoid layoffs through retirements and
resignations.
"The furloughs are not a direct result of the DC-10 grounding or an) 1
other airplane decision. They're just a result of the overall shrinkage ot
the airline," American spokesman John Hotard said.
On Monday, Delta Air Lines said it would furlough about 600 pilots
beginning in June and would ground 28 airplanes by January.
United Airlines said in January it would lay off 2,800 employees and
not hire 1,900 that it had planned to add. Like American and Delta,
United is also retiring older airplanes ahead of schedule.

Arnot outlined four ways to improve the health of the children in
America.
Arnot encouraged parents to make athletes out of their children.
"During the first six years, children develop basic skills," he said
"This gives them abilities later in life that improve their self confidence
and help them succeed in life."
Arnot's second piece of advice was to teach children to "eat to win."
"Children need to see the magical quality to food," he said.
By seeing foods as medicinal, Arnot believes people will eat better
and therefore, perform better.
Providing children with a sense of optimism was Arnot's third
point. He said optimists are much healthier and heal faster than pes
simists.
Finally, Arnot talked about giving children a sense of vision.
"Children need the vibrant images that they get from books and he
roes," he said.
Imagery helps in healing, he said. This is why many Americans
have turned to alternative medicine specialists for medical aid.
"We don't give our children the vision that they need," Arnot said
"They need a vision that is free from the economic ties of the traditional
American dream."
"So few of us take the time to dream of what we can become and
more importantly of what our children can become," he said.
