Two Brothers Sought in Murder of Woman
In Pawhuska Oklahoma on March 25 murder charges were filed against Theodore and Everett Tucker for the highway killing of Betty Stewart 33 of Cleveland Oklahoma four miles northeast of Prue. The case stems from a confrontation after Miss Stewart’s escort Jobe Callison escaped by leaping from the car as the Tucker brothers returned from Oz Tucker’s home with a shotgun and ordered surrender. Callison reported Miss Stewart had faced improper advances and the brothers admitted to fleeing after the shooting saying we’ve killed somebody.
