Three-year-old Kim Lynn was visiting her father, 24-year-old Louis Walls, at his Minquadale, Delaware home under a court custody agreement on August 8, 1987. Both were found dead of single gunshot wounds to the head inside the residence on Martin Drive in the Collins Park neighborhood; a 9mm pistol was recovered at the house. Their bodies were discovered around 9 p.m. by Louis’s brother George Walls and his wife Mary after the family became concerned when Louis did not return Kim the previous night.

Police treated the scene as a murder-suicide with Louis Walls identified as the responsible party and no arrests made. Memorial records confirm Kim’s death by gun violence on that date in Minquadale.

If anyone knew Kim or the Walls family, or has information about that day in August 1987, please share what you know.
