On Thursday morning, authorities served a search warrant at the Bacliff home of James Elmore, the man who has been indicted in connection with two of the four “Texas Killing Fields” murders.

James Elmore, the man indicted in connection with two of the four “Texas Killing Fields” murders, had his bond set at $1.5 million in a Galveston County courtroom Thursday.

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).

On Oct. 7, 1983, Heidi Villarreal Fye disappeared. Her body was found the following April in an area off Calder Road in League City. The area would later be known as “The Killing Fields.”

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.
