Arrest in Case
Investigators executed a search warrant at Roger Hammond's residence
on March 2, 2001 and Yoknapatawpha Sheriff's Public Information
Officer Elizabeth Jones said forensic analysis of items recovered
in that search was "critical" in the arrest. Jones declined
to identify the specific evidence that implicates Hammond, but said
the suspected murder weapon was among the items. Jones stated the
Sheriff's Department believes Hammond murdered his ex-wife to regain
custody of their 7-year-old daughter and to collect on a $2 million
life insurance policy he held on Missy Hammond.
