Wesley J. Wes Donaldson, a 60-year-old White man from Fillmore, Illinois, was found with a gunshot wound to the head under the Stan Musial Veterans Memorial Bridge in St. Louis during the early morning hours of Christmas Eve 2020. He was taken to St. Louis University Hospital in critical condition and later died. His death was recorded as St. Louis homicide number 254 for 2020.

Donaldson’s body was returned to Illinois and family and friends held a Celebration of Life at the Fillmore Sportsman Club the following June.

Why was Donaldson under the bridge on that pre-dawn holiday, and who can account for his movements that night?
