A man who long remained a prime suspect in the so-called “Texas Killing Fields” murders has died.

A man considered a suspect in the so-called ‘Killing Fields’ murders is facing a review of his parole conditions, according to Galveston County District Attorney Jack Roady and Texas EquuSearch founder, Tim Miller. Clyde Hedrick was paroled from prison in 2021, sent to live at halfway house and placed under the state’s highest level of supervision known as the Super Intensive Supervision Program (SISP).

Tim Miller, founder of Texas EquuSearch, won a default judgment in his 2014 wrongful death lawsuit filed against Clyde Edwin Hedrick. Galveston County judge Lonnie Cox granted Miller’s motion for default judgment on Monday and awarded him $21,020,000 in damages.
