Billings Murder Accessory Pamela Long Wiggins Dies In Prison

July 24, 2015

Pamela Long Wiggins, who was convicted of accessory to murder after the fact in connection with the Billings murders, died Thursday in state prison.

Wiggins was serving a 28 years sentence for her role in the robbery and murders of Byrd and Melanie Billings at their Beulah home in July 2009.

She was accused of helping to hide a safe that was taken from the Billings home in her Gulf Breeze backyard and taking guns to Mississippi that were used in the murders.

Wiggins cause of death remains under investigation.  In April of this year, she petitioned for a conditional medical release due to an unreleased terminal illness that had left her with six to 12 months to live. That release was denied.

Another Billings murder suspect, Leonard Patrick Gonzalez Sr., died in state prison in June.

    I agree with Kyle in the above comments. She got what she deserved.

    Pam you remain in my thoughts. Life is hard, mistakes are made and consequences will follow. I miss your infectuous smile and warm embrace.

    My dear sweet Pam. I was with you in prison. How you are missed. I am glad I got to know the wonderful selfless person you were!

    There’s judgment and there’s judgment.

    It is regrettable she was involved with those I judge to have done a horrible, despicable thing.
    If she lived by lies, she was of the Prince of Lies and at home with him.
    If she lived by truth, The Truth forgave her sins even if not her crimes and even this is forgiven even though it left behind so much suffering.
    (Simply saying something does not make it true, not even this statement.)

    She met a sad end at the end of the path she chose.

    David for truth and fewer regrets

    Rest in Peace Pam. You’re free…finally. Bill Eddins and the State of Florida didn’t get the satisfaction of locking you up for 28 years on trumped up charges. Maybe if they had honored their word…maybe if they had pursued the true criminal…the one they let get away. The one who was an accessory BEFORE and AFTER the fact to DOUBLE MURDER AND HOME INVASION. But no, Bill Eddins chose to lie about you….to cheat you. Yes, its true, Bill Eddins is a lying sack of anal excretion…and he will answer for his deceit in a Higher Court.

    If you look back into her history, she also had a grand theft charge which she pled down to a misdemeanor.

    Which makes you wonder how she came up with a lot of the wealth that she had.

    Not only that, but she was in jail trying to convince a minister of hers that she was innocent of what she was being accused. And she was succeeding. Only later did that minister come out and admit that he had been taken in by this person.

    And for all those people who say “only God can judge” this person, that’s incorrect. If it were correct, we wouldn’t have *people* named judges.

    And this rule about “always speak well of the dead” … that’s just a form of cognitive dissonance. The word “legacy” applies here for this deservedly dead woman, but only as a bad example of it.

    Hey People , she’s gone now, let her rest in peace. There are people out in the world that knew and loved her in spite of any mistakes. Not our place to place Judgement, God doesn’t need any of our help. He can handle it from her, just let her rest in peace, if for no one else, do it for her children….who knows you may find yourself hurting one day !

    God bless her children!

    To Pamela’s children – I’m so sorry for your loss. Losing a mother at such a young age is hard enough, not being able to spend the last days together in privacy must have been devastating. Forgiveness and compassion are hard for some people. Know there are people out there who reserve judgement for the Almighty, and who believe that you can (and will!) grow up into successful, wonderful individuals inspite of everything you’ve been through.

    I wonder how much in medical treatments the state had to spend to keep alive?
    The prison can not deny medical treatments.

    One in June, One in July, come on lets keep this one on a roll,
    There are what about 5 more?, By December they should all be gone,.,.

    It’s hard to morn for someone involved in such an evil deed.

    Karma sucks!

  15. Joani on July 24th, 2015 5:20 pm

    No sympathy for her. She chose her fate!

    Tax money saved.

  17. JT on July 24th, 2015 2:18 pm

    She assisted in taking 2 parents away from their kids. That scum died right where she deserved to be.

    I prefer living on the good side of the law so that I won’t have to petition the court for an early release.

  19. chris on July 24th, 2015 12:12 pm

    that’s two now in three weeks

  20. BillyD on July 24th, 2015 12:11 pm

    How fitting that she never got out of prison. Hope she met the correct end as well. The big man upstairs probably gave her a detour……..

    Justice served!
