More information is coming to light in the relationship between on of the Gonzalez murder suspects and the eighth person arrested Wednesday in connection with the Billings murders.

long2.jpgPamela Long Wiggins. 47,  was arrested Wednesday night and charged with accessory after the fact to felony murder in connection with the deaths of Melanie and Byrd Billings. Morgan had previously identified Wiggins as Pamela Laverne Long, but a marriage license obtained by NorthEscambia.com indicates that she was married on December 31 of last year to Hugh Gregory Wiggins.

That marriage license is signed by witnesses L. Patrick Gonzalez and Tabitha C. Gonzalez. Tabitha Gonzalez is the wife of Leonard Patrick Gonzalez, Jr.

“She’s been observed transporting his wife and children at times,” Morgan said of Pamela Long Wiggins. “We know that she was associated with Leonard Patrick Gonzalez Jr. until the day of the murders.”

But court records in Escambia County indicate that her divorce from her previous husband is not complete.

Under the name Pamela Long Malden, she filed for divorce from James Colburn Malden, 68, on January 29, 2008.  Escambia County court records indicate that the case is still open.

    Yes, Fla. does have the death penalty. And if ever a case screamed for it, this case is the one.
    Those chuckleheads should be wiped off the face of the earth, including the not-so-charming Pamela Wiggins. They are cretins, useless and illustritive of what can happen when idiots breed, or maybe inbreed. If the situation was not so tragic it would be funny; a case to be featured on DUMB CRIMINALS., however, this case is a tragedy of immense proportions, so sad.

    I hope they have the death pently there in Florida, and they carry it out ASAP. I don’t feel the state of Florida or any other for that matter should house,feed,cloth.and allow them to partake of TV,Radio,Library, ANYTHING, THEY HAVE MURDERED TWO BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE GOD HAD TAKING CARE OF THE INNOCENT,” CHILDREN”.

    How in the hell would they feel, if someone came into their homes and did just a hanius act, as they did. They would want the people put to death immediately,,as should be.

    Our country needs to start getting back to the Bible, GOD DIDN’T ALLOW SUCH ACT’S TO GO UN-PUNISHED. HE PUT THEM TO DEATH, THE WHOLE TOWNS, WHIPPED THEM OUT COMPLETED!!!!!!!!!!1

    Well, according to the clerk of the court records the dissolution of her marriage to Malden is still open and undisposed.

    How can she get married again when she was still married to that other guy Jimmy Malden as reported on Good Morning America as he was her estranged husband-isn’t that bigamy? can she be charged for that?
