A grand jury in Howard County, Texas, indicted four men with ties to the racist prison gang Aryan Circle for the murder of a 20-year-old Big Spring, Texas, man in January.

John Michael Hays, 50, of Big Spring; Billy Wayne Haynes, 30, of Houston; Christopher David Lovett, 33; and Calvin Ray Fox Jr., 22, were all indicted in April on murder charges for their alleged roles in the killing.

The victim, whose body was discovered in a ravine six miles north of Coahoma, Texas, on Highway 820, appeared to have sustained a severe beating, including significant head trauma.

According to investigators Hays has allegedly confessed to the murder.
