OZARK, Mo.
– A suspect for the death of a woman from Oldfield surrendered to the
Christian County Sheriff’s Department on Monday morning.
Billy Hall is the third
person charged for the death of Freda Heyn, who disappeared in November 2003
after going to the post office in Oldfield, near where she lived. Part of
remains turned up a few months later in the Mark Twain National forest near
Garrison, several miles south of Oldfield.
Hall is
charged with second-degree murder in Christian County and also faces a federal
firearms charge. His bond is
$500,000. Hall used to be related
by marriage to one of the other suspects, Paula Hall. According to
investigators' probable cause statements, the first suspect, David
Epperson, appears to have provided much of the information that led to
charges against Billy Hall and Paula Hall.
