Coincidence?
Is it a coincidence that both William Reece and Mark Stallings worked on Robert Abels property? Is it a coincidence that they both happen to be on the same prison unit in TDC in 1998?
One thing is for sure. Police are being very tight lipped about the whole Reece thing. The different digging going on in the area.
Reece was one of the guys I wrote. I wrote Reece a letter back on December 15th 2015. I told him who I was and that I had been writing several suspect in the killing fields murders and the missing girls in the area, in particular Jessica Cain. I told Reece that Mark Stallings was opening up about his involvement in the murders and told me to where find more bodies, Stallings even drew me a map. I told Reece he needed to man up and quit being a punk. I said to him that he was never going to get out, lets get these girls found so the families can have some kind of closure.
Along with Stallings, I have corresponded with Edward Harold Bell and Brandon Lavergne.
Stalling mentions in one of his letters a partner he had when he killed the two girls in Fort Bend County that he had picked up from the Montrose. April Eaves and Benna Bowen. I am wondering if the partner he is talking about was Reece? It could be, afterall Reece and Stallings both worked on Robert Abels properties.
Here is an excerpt from the Houston Chronicle about the two girls in Fort bend County.:
Stallings was brought to the attention of League City police by Fort Bend County sheriff's officials, to whom he had written during the summer and claimed to have information about some murders in that county.
"Some of the details in the letter suggested he had to have more than knowledge picked up from the media," said Fort Bend County Sheriff Milton Wright.
"Investigators and Texas Rangers visited with him in prison and brought him to this county for about a week," Wright said. "He took the Rangers and our detectives for some drives, pointed out some places, and it became apparent that he knew what he was talking about."
The sheriff said that, although physical evidence is lacking, charges against Stallings are likely for the April 1986 slaying ofBenna "Bea" Bowen, 27, and the June 1989 death of 18-year-old April Eaves.
"He's convinced the detectives that he legitimately was there at the time," Wright said. "There are details that only the investigating officers or those close to it would know. He had some of those details.
"He also led them to the scene, which is not an easy scene to find since it was out in a pasture. The area had changed considerably since the time the murders occurred and when he was back here, he was still able to take them back there."
Eaves' body was found in an abandoned mobile home near FM 1464 and Old Richmond Road. Bowen's body was found in an undeveloped area of the county known as Park Westheimer.
Both women, described by authorities as crack cocaine addicts working as prostitutes in Houston's Montrose area, were strangled.
Stallings showed no remorse, Wright said.
He added that Stallings, who has been in and out of prison since 1991, also gave detectives information about other unsolved murders in the county.
When Stallings, originally from the Seguin area, was about to be returned to prison after speaking with Fort Bend officials, he mentioned that he also has information about the League City killings, Wright said.
Stallings also drew three maps. Two of the killing fields and where there are supposed to be three more bodies. The other map was Robert Abel's other property in Bellville and a particular area on that property that Abel warned him to stay away from.
In my opinion, this partner that Stallings is talking about is William Reece.
I cant put all the information here. There are a lot of people trying to get this information from me. In total Ive gotten about 16 letters from Stallings, two from Brandon Lavergne and a couple from Edward Bell.
What I find absolutely insane is the way police handle these cases.
If you notice, nothing is mentioned about the girls missing that were drug addicts or prostitutes. Cops refer to them in their work as "misdemeanor murders". Of course they will go look for the killers of "good girls" especially with those whose families have money.
I record all my calls when I talk to law enforcement folks about these murders and it would flip you out. The intimidation tactics they use on me does not slow me down. In the words of a very well known law enforcement person who I talked too. "Jim, they had a big meeting about you and those letters, and it sounded like they were trying to find a way to hang a case on your ass......watch your back".
I have also noticed, when I started this, that the different agencies working on this do not totally cooperate with each other. Everyone wants to be a hero! They try to discredit me because I am an old crook. Let them try. But those who know me, even cops, know that I am on the level and I am doing this 100 percent with their blessings. I had a detective from one agency ask me if I would help him with a couple of their cold cases.
All I can do is keep trying to get information and keep trying to put this together, pretty much doing this alone.
If you or anyone you know has information about any of these missing girls or their murders, please contact me if you want to remain anonymous, otherwise, contact the law enforcement agency handling the case.
