Escaped Convict, Warden's Wife Found

April 05, 2005

OKLAHOMA CITY — The wife of a deputy prison warden who disappeared 10 years ago along with a convicted killer has been found unharmed in East Texas but doesn't appear to be in any hurry to return to her old life, authorities said.

A tip generated by the TV show "America's Most Wanted" led law enforcement to a mobile home in Campti, Texas, where escaped convict Randolph Dial (search) was arrested Monday, said Salvador Hernandez, special agent in charge of the FBI in Oklahoma.

The assistant warden's wife, Bobbi Parker (search), was found a short time later working at a chicken ranch elsewhere in the county, agents said. Once described by the FBI as an endangered missing person, Parker was not arrested.

"As far as I know, she has no intention of leaving," Shelby County Sheriff Newton Johnson told The Oklahoman late Monday. "She said she wants to stay on the farm and raise chickens."

Dial, 60, was taken into custody without incident. A loaded pistol was found on top of a nearby table, the FBI said.

Investigators initially thought Parker, 42, was kidnapped and held against her will by Dial, who escaped Aug. 30, 1994, from the Oklahoma State Reformatory (search) in Granite in southwestern Oklahoma.

"It's the kind of place where, if a guy just wanted to blend in and not be found, he could do it here," Johnson said."

Well, not forever......

I think it was the lure of the chicken ranch that got her

It could have been worse, she could have been discovered working at the Chicken Ranch in Nevada.

Guess she discovered that fugitive sex was more exciting than warden sex.

I save many threads to my hard drive. I have many category folders to facilitate retrieval. I am so glad I finally created a folder named "hmmmmmmmm". I would go nuts otherwise, figuring out where to file stories like this one.

Campti, Texas.

That is out in the woods. If you look at your streets/map program, you will find that this is just a crossroads, no city streets.

The place is so far out in the woods, that if they had opened a Barbeque stand in their front yard (common in the piney woods) only fishermen on way to back waters of Toledo Bend Reservoir would know about it.

Actually, Johnson is the "Shelby County Sheriff" who " told The Oklahoman late Monday. "She said she wants to stay on the farm and raise chickens."
