Man Changes His Story In Strangling Case Shocks Idaho Slaying
Chicago bound ex inmate William H. Butler, 22, of Jersey City, waives extradition after admitting and denying the Idaho murder of Barbara Jean Dixon, 20, a NIU and Boise College student. He says he rode with her to Boise, returned her to her dorm, then left for Chicago. Butler asserts he planned to plead, claiming his initial statement was truthful but fearful. He told reporters he knew nothing of the slaying and later cited seven hours of confinement as motive for the discrepancy.
