A MCDONNELL DOUGLAS DC-10 HAD LANDED AND PROCEEDED TO THE RAMP AREA. AS HE ENTERED THE RAMP AND STARTED TOWARD GATE 6, THE GREEN SIGNAL LIGHT CHANGED TO RED AND THE PILOT STOPPED WITH THE DC-10'S TAIL POINTED TOWARD THE PARRALLEL TAXIWAY BESIDE RUNWAY 08R. THE PILOT WAS SIGNALED TO STOP SINCE THE JETWAY HAD BEEN MOVED OUT PREMATURELY. JUST PRIOR TO THIS TIME, A CESSNA 140, N2256N, HAD LANDED ON RUNWAY 08R. THE CESSNA PILOT WAS INSTRUCTED TO STAY ON THE RUNWAY UNTIL ABEAM THE REPUBLIC HANGER. INSTEAD OF STAYING ON THE RUNWAY, THE CESSNA PILOT TURNED OFF AND TAXIED ON THE PARALLEL TAXIWAY. AS HE WAS CROSSING (AT NIGHT) BEHIND THE DC-10, THE DC-10 PILOT GOT A GREEN SIGNAL TO TAXI INTO THE GATE. THE DC-10 PILOT ADDED 35% POWER ON 1 ENGINE AND THE JET BLAST BLEW THE CESSNA OVER. NEITHER OF THE GROUND HANDLERS SAW THE CESSNA BEFORE SIGNALING THE DC-10 TO MOVE INTO THE GATE. THE ATC CONTROLLER STATED THAT HE SAW THE CESSNA TURN OFF THE RUNWAY EARLY, BUT SINCE THERE WAS NO CONFLICTING TRAFFIC, HE MADE TWO MORE TRANSMISSIONS.
