Florida Death Row Inmate Sues To Get Truck of His Victims

For two years, the courts in Florida have been dealing with a bizarre filing by death row inmate William Deparvine, who was convicted in the killing in 2006 of Richard and Karla Van Dusen. He is suing to get a vintage Chevy pickup truck owned by the dead couple.

Richard Van Dusen, 57, refurbished the red 1971 Chevrolet Cheyenne truck won various car show awards before putting it up for sale. Deparvine responded to the advertisement and, on Nov. 26, 2003,Van Dusen, 58, and his wife, 49, were found dead with bullets in their heads.

At trial, prosecutors alleged that Deparvine typed out the bill of sale to make it look like he bought the truck for $6500 and forged Richard Van Dusen’s name.

DNA evidence linked Deparvine to the crime.
