MOSS BLUFF
Man, 56, Charged in Roommate's Death

A 56-year-old man accused of beating his roommate to death with a sledgehammer and a claw hammer was arrested Monday morning.

Franklin Paul Crow was charged with homicide in the weekend death of Kenneth Matthews, 58. Crow is being held without bail in the Marion County Jail.

Authorities with the Marion County Sheriff's Office said the suspect beat the victim in the head with a sledgehammer in their Southeast 95th Street Road home after getting upset there was no toilet tissue in the home.

Capt. Thomas Bibb said Crow initially denied his involvement in the crime, at first blaming it on a local motorcycle gang.

Crow confessed after detectives knocked holes in his story and alibi, Bibb, said.

Detectives said Matthews had been beaten so badly that officials had to identify the body through a set of fingerprints.
