Elmore Convicted in Texas Killing Fields Case | El Paso News
Description
A man convicted of manslaughter in the 1986 death of 16-year-old Laura Miller—whose body was found in the infamous Texas Killing Fields—just received a 20-year prison sentence. The prosecution claims Elmore helped prepare the cocaine that killed her, tying him to one of the few solved cases from a decades-long nightmare where over 30 young women vanished near Houston. Her father, Tim Miller, founded Texas EquuSearch to hunt for missing persons after his daughter’s death. Another suspect, Clyde Hedrick—a friend of Elmore and a prior manslaughter convict—died by suicide before facing charges. Though Elmore’s conviction brings some closure, most Killing Fields murders remain unsolved, haunting the region as other inmates like William Reece have confessed to multiple killings—but the full truth still eludes justice.
