HOUSTON, Feb. 11 (UPI) -- Several carvings, including one in the shape of a castle, were found on the back of a woman whose body was found near a Houston airport, court documents show.
The Houston Chronicle said court documents released Wednesday reveal the castle carving found on the back of Becky Lou Hamilton, 52, is similar to a drawing of a castle found in a trailer belonging to killing suspect Larry Allen Ricketts.
Ricketts, 41, was charged with Hamilton's death and is being held in lieu of $200,000 bail in Harris County Jail.
Hamilton disappeared New Year's Day and her body was found nude and stuffed inside a foot locker near George Bush Intercontinental Airport on Jan. 8.
Authorities said Hamilton's body showed signs of head trauma, but an official cause of death in the case has yet to be determined.
Hamilton's sister, Debra Broussard, insists her sister did not have the back carvings before her disappearance. Broussard told the Chronicle the carvings also revealed how dangerous Ricketts can be.
"It showed them the seriousness and the violence of this person," Broussard claimed. "This guy doesn't need to be on the street."
