S.
C. Escapee to Be Returned HELENA, Mont. (UPI) tana Gov. Babco*ck said Thursday he will return convicted Ray Bailey to the South Carolina prison from which Bailey escaped in 1957. Babco*ck said he made his decision only after being assured Bailey will receive "just consideration" in South Carolina.
The Governor told newsmen he had telephoned Gov. Donald Russell of South Carolina "to get some additional background on the case." Although he indicated sympathy for the 54-year-old Bailey, Babco*ck said his decision to sign the extradition papers was made on the basis that Bailey was wanted for escape. Babco*ck said he felt legally bound not to go any deeper into the case than to ascertain that Bailey was a fugitive from prison. That was readily admitted at an extradition hearing Wednesday at which Bailey was represented by Thomas Wofford, a former U. S.
Senator from South Carolina and now a Greenville, S. lawyer. Wofford, who was the deputy prosecutor at Greenville when Bailey received a life sentence for the 1932 slaying of Greenville policeman A. B. Hunt, urged Babco*ck to grant Bailey sanctuary in Montana on ground his client was a "fugitive from injustice." Wofford claimed Bailey pleaded guilty in 1936 and agreed to a life sentence on the basis of a written agreement that Bailey would serve no longer than 10 years.
Wofford claimed the agreement was not honored by the South Carolina parole board and Bailey spent 21 years behind bars before his escape. He was arrested last month at West Yellowstone where he managed a motel. The FBI picked him up after a sheriff recognized him from a wanted poster. Wofford, who was deputy prosecutor at Greenville when Bailey was sentenced in 1936, told the Governor that Bailey is not a fugitive from justice. Instead, he said, "He is a fugitive from injustice." Wofford said Bailey should have been released from prison in 1946 or sooner under an agreement made before Bailey was sentenced to life in prison in 1936.

mend a pardon or parole from the South Carolina Board of Pardons or from the governor after Bailey had served not more than 10 years. Wofford also gave Babco*ck a letter from Leatherwood confirming he made such a recommendation. But he said the Parole Board rejected the recommendation and the law was changed to prevent the Governor from granting paroles or pardons. Wofford said only two persons in South Carolina want Bailey returned. He said they are the executive secretary of the parole board, who wants Bailey back because Bailey has never admitted killing the policeman, and the prison supervisor who feels Bailey's escape is a blot on the prison record.
lever swore he saw Bailey shoot the policeman was John Corea, another Greenville policeman who later was sentenced to a federal prison for bank robbery. Wofford said Bailey claimed he was innocent of the killing but agreed to plead guilty on the basis of the 1936 agreement. Wofford said that because of "high public sentiment" in Greenville at the time Bailey feared electrocution if he stood trial.
