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.

I smell a very popular and financially rewarding movie here. Already made --- "Mrs. Soffel" (sp?) based on a true story that happened in Pittsburgh back in the late 1800s -- Convict escaping with the wife of the prison warden.

Dial ran an inmate pottery program with Bobbi Parker. He used a kiln in the Parkers' garage and had full access to their home during the day. I'd say he more than just access to the home.
