FBI: Body resembles alleged 1976 family killer

The body of a John Doe who bears a "strong resemblance" to a former state department employee accused of the gruesome 1976 sledgehammer murders of his wife, mother and three sons, is being exhumed by the FBI.
Investigators believe the unidentified man who was killed by a hit and run driver in 1981 may well be William Bradford "Brad" Bishop Jr., a mainstay on the FBI's 10 Most Wanted Fugitive's list for years.
He allegedly bludgeoned his family members to death at their home in Bethseda Md. in 1976. Their burned bodies were found in a shallow grave in Columbia N.C..  
They day after they were killed Bishop's last confirmed sighting was at a sporting goods store in Jacksonville N.C..
Two weeks later his station wagon was found in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, which encompasses more than 500,000 acres.

WILLIAM WALTER ASHER III BUSTED 36-YEARS ON

BUSTED

ARREST

A DYING mom's wish led the FBI to capture her fugitive son, who had eluded capture for 36 years.
Back in 1966 William Walter Asher III was part of a four man crew who shot and beat a San Francisco barman to death during a robbery.
But although he was captured, convicted and given to life imprisonment, eight years into his sentence a woman helped him escape.
Agents believed he was in the Northwest Territories of Canada and near Alaska, but could not find him.
They later found out that he had assumed the name David Donald McFee, worked as a long-haul truck driver, married, and raised a family.
