On July 17, 1983, Steven Leonard Panhead Jonas, a 34-year-old Hispanic member of the Bandidos Motorcycle Club, was shot once in the neck with a shotgun and killed in a nightclub parking lot in San Antonio following an argument inside the club. Investigators determined the fatal wound was a single shotgun blast to the neck, but contemporary accounts did not fully disclose what triggered the dispute or who fired the weapon.

Jonas had previously been questioned in federal inquiries into the November 21, 1978, attack on Assistant U.S. Attorney James Kerr and had appeared before grand juries in the May 29, 1979, assassination of U.S. District Judge John H. Wood Jr., but no verified information links those investigations to his death.

Jonas’s family learned of the killing early the morning after the shooting when Bandidos members notified them and sought permission to arrange a club funeral. Approximately 200 club members rode in procession to Zion Lutheran Church cemetery on July 20, 1983. Does anyone have information about the shooting, the suspect police mentioned, or witnesses from that night?
