Pamela Wiggins Was Once Suspected In $300,000 Arson
July 24, 2009
Pamela Long Wiggins, accused as an accessory in the murders of Pamela and Byrd Billings, was once under suspicion for an arson that caused more than $300,000 in damage in Albany, Georgia.
The Albany Herald reports that Wiggins, 47, was under suspicion of arson according to Albany Fire Chief James Carswell. The newspaper reported:
In Albany she was married in 1988 to Charles Thomas Coco, divorce papers state. She had a son and the couple divorced in September 1992. Coco is now deceased according to a wedding announcement at OnlineAthens.com.
It is unclear whether the 1992 fire happened before or after the divorce.
“The way I understand it, someone went through this property with flammable liquids and set it on fire,” Carswell said. “It caused more than $300,000 worth of damage, according to the report.”
Wiggins remains free on $10,000 bail on the accessory charge in the Billings murder. Her next scheduled court appearance is an arraignment hearing on August 6.

when we ask why shes not in jail thats easy look around how many times have you asked youself why someone never seems to be in jail knowing they should.
Most of these people play a game that really shouldnt be used so often you know lets make a deal. thats why let someone tell you not so. They also need to be locked up.
This lady seems to get off easy on everything crooked she is involved with!
As far as I’m concerned, she should still be in jail right along side the rest of the accused killers. If she stood look out while they practiced their dry runs, if she left her van close to the Billings home before the murders happened so that they could transfer the safe in it, then that tells me that she was involved before the fact, not after the fact.
How can she be charged with the crime as an accesory after the fact when it’s plain as a pimple on your face that she was involved in the very beginning?
And Lord forgive me, I’d also like to smack that smirk right off her face too!
was the fire for insurance or revenge for somrthing?
Long, Wiggins, Coco, Malden . . . . wow, Does anyone how many times she has been married????
