I went to his funeral. I’d only been a certified Officer since July ‘79 and it was my first and I’ve never forgotten. It was then I learned what it really meant about law enforcement “family”. RIP Trooper Langham, you will never be forgotten.

No parol for Billy’s murders. All five made a choice. Killed a good man. Left a family without father or husband. I remember every time I drive by where this murder took place and so senseless and no care for another’s life. Now want a patrol for the crime. Please deny this effort of parole.

Officer Langham was the responding HPO to my husband’s fatal wreck in 1981. The compassion he showed to me that tragic day was immeasurable. I will be writing a second letter to hopefully have the parole of Charles Montgomery, denied one more. Officer Langham, RIP, sir.

Charles Montgomery MDOC inmate #42332 is coming up for parole, yet again in a few weeks. Please send letters to the parole board to stop this- he was given life in prison. Daddy is still serving his sentence Charles Montgomery should as well. He was a convicted felon at the time of daddy’s death.. after beating him along with three other felons helping him and stabbing him .. Charles Montgomery shot daddy in the face with his own weapon.
The address to send letter is:
Mississippi Parole Board
660 North Street
Suite 100
Jackson, MS 39202

To all who are listening, one of the killers of Officer Langham (Otis Lee Fairley) has passed away while incarcerated. He died after serving 36 years of his life sentence. I hope that this gives Officer Langham's friends and family some closure and justice.

Trooper "Country Boy" Billy Langham was in my class at the MHP Academy Class #13.
He was liked by everyone that knew him. Only met him 2 times after graduation at training classes.
He was just Billy...
