Grand Jury Indicts Suspects In Billings Murder
August 11, 2009
It took an Escambia County grand jury just four hours Tuesday to indict eight people in the Byrd and Melanie Billings murder case.
The six men and one teenager arrested in connection with the murders were each charged with two counts of first degree murder and one count of home invasion in connection with the July 9 murders and robbery of the Beulah couple.
Leonard Patrick Gonzalez, Jr., Leonard Patrick Gonzalez, Sr., Wayne Thomas Coldiron, Gary Lamont Sumner, Jr., Frederick Lee Thornton, Jr., Rakeem Chavez Florence and Donnie Ray Stallworth will each be arraigned at 9:00 Thursday morning on two counts of first degree murder and one county of home invasion. Judge Joel Boels ordered that all defendants be held without bond in the Escambia County Jail.
Pamela Long-Wiggins was indicted on a charge of first degree accessory after the fact, a felony charge that carries a maximum penalty of 30 years in prison. She remains free on bond, but the State Attorney’s office is requesting that her bond be increased.

she looks proud of what she was involved with…or is it that she knew she was going to get off easy. Imagine smiling in your mugshot!
i think that wiggins needs to be in the jail with the other criminals. Way to go and they should all put away .
The best, very best, criminals are never caught by The Law. Likewise, if a conman weren’t any good, he couldn’t con ANYBODY.
Long-Wiggins needs to be in jail with the other criminals. She certainly knew what was going on and was a part of the whole thing. Why should she be out? That smirk on her mug shot says that she doesn’t think she is in BIG trouble. I think she is as guilty as any of the others that were involved.
So does this mean Long-Wiggins will now have to rot in jail with the other criminals?
