Back in March, the Galveston County District Attorney's Office said James Dolphs Elmore Jr., of Bacliff, was indicted for his role in the Texas Killing Fields case. He was charged with manslaughter and tampering with evidence in connection with the 1984 murder of Laura Miller, as well as tampering in the 1986 killing of Audrey Cook.
The DA said, through a multi-agency investigation, including re-interviewing witnesses, the DA's office decided to seek grand jury indictments against Clyde Hedrick for the deaths of Miller, Cook, Heidi Fye-Villareal, and Donna Prudhomme -- whose bodies were also found.
Hedrick died in March 2026.
