William Willy John Furlong was 48 when he was killed on July 14, 2013, at the Hells Angels clubhouse in southeast Omaha. Friends described him as intelligent, funny, and a talented tattoo artist; family and friends remembered him as caring and mourned his violent death. Police found his body at the clubhouse and investigators determined he died of a gunshot wound.

The investigation focused on fellow club member Jay Witt, then 47, and a warrant for second-degree murder was issued. Witt was arrested in August 2013 in Omaha in a stolen vehicle; a handgun was found in the car. He initially faced second-degree murder charges, claimed self-defense, then pleaded no contest to manslaughter, use of a deadly weapon and possession of a deadly weapon by a prohibited person, and received a 30 to 40 year sentence.

If anyone knew Willy Furlong, his habits, contacts, or what happened at the clubhouse that day, please share information with investigators.
