Father, son charged with murder in killing of UTA worker

KEMMERER, Wyo. — A father and son who had been called “persons of interest” in the death of a Utah Transit Authority worker were officially charged with murder Tuesday in Wyoming.

Dereck James “DJ” Harrison, 22, of Centerville, and his father, Flint Wayne Harrison, 51, of Pinedale, Wyoming, were each charged with murder in the first degree in the killing of Kay Porter Ricks, 63, of American Fork. Ricks’ body was found in a remote area about 16 miles south of Kemmerer on May 17.

The charges carry a potential death sentence in Wyoming.

The 14-page affidavit filed for each defendant in the Circuit Court of the 3rd Judicial Court in Lincoln County, graphically outlines a brutal death caused over an 18-minute period that included Ricks’ face being smashed with a blunt force object to the point he was no longer recognizable and his neck slashed three times before he was dumped under a sagebrush and left to die.
