Wable Trial For Turnpike Killing Goes To Jury
Greensburg Pa The fate of John Wesley Wable the phantom killer of a sleeping trucker on the Pennsylvania Turnpike goes to a jury after a judge charges them. The state seeks first degree murder with the death penalty for Pitts 39 of Bowling Green Va shot July 23 near Donegal. Defense says most charges are second degree and calls it hollow to seek the death penalty while a man named Jim Parks remains at large. The case centers on Pitts but the state says the same gun was used to kill Woodward and wound Sheperd. Assistant DA Loughran argues Parks was the killer and that counterfeit money proves his role while discrediting Wable’s testimony.
