Masked Murder

 An article in the Lamb County Leader-News  in the “At the Museum” recurring column about the +Dr. Roy Hunt Murders called  “Masked Murder” This appeared August 10, 2008. The column ended with “Stay turned....” implying that there would be further developments from the archives of the Leader-News, but there were not. The article used fictitious names for Dr. W. R. Newton, Jr and his wife, Ruth, calling them “Dr. and Mrs. Pinney.” The article quoted a story in Authentic Detective Cases as well as the Lubbock Morning Avalanche as additional sources. The "At The Museum" columns are a valuable tool in learning the history of Littlefield. Check the Littlefield Lands/Duggan House Museum website for more of these articles.
