Description
William Edward Hickman, positively identified as the kidnapper and murderer of 12-year-old Marion Parker, whose father worked at the bank where Hickman was formerly employed. His time at this job as a bank messenger gave him the knowledge that Perry Parker loved his two twin daughters and would be a likely candidate to pay ransom Hickman needed for college tuition.
