Arthur Lee Walson was 21 when he was killed on July 9, 1971. He was an African American man born August 7, 1949, and was interred at Jefferson Barracks National Cemetery in St. Louis County, Missouri after his death.

In 1980, a man named Andre Jones confessed to a triple murder from 1971, saying he had shot and stabbed Walson and brothers Frank Slaughter, 23, and Jack Slaughter, 21. Jones told investigators he killed the men over unpaid money for drugs, but an officer decided not to file charges because he believed Jones, who would have been 14 in 1971, was too young to have acted alone. Jones refused to say whether he had an accomplice.

No prosecutions or arrests have been made in these killings, and the case remains unresolved. Does anyone have information about Walson, the Slaughters, or the 1971 killings that could help reopen leads?
