UPDATE: Suspect in Iola Slayings Dies

 

The suspect in the deaths of a woman and her father in Iola dies from injuries sustained in a self-inflicted shooting.  Tulsa Police say, as they were closing in, 38-year-old Ben Converse shot himself with a handgun.  Amy Elliot of the Oklahoma Medical Examiner’s Office confirms Converse’s death and says his organs were being donated before an autopsy is conducted.  

 

A manhunt for Converse began on Thursday after the bodies of 36-year-old Molly Wilson and 69-year-old John Tadlock were found in their Iola home.  Converse was located in Tulsa on Friday.  The Allen County Sheriff’s Office say the investigation continues.
